We are pleased to announce that a collaborative steering committee has been formed to implement a public awareness campaign regarding workplace violence in health care settings.
The Steering Committee on Workplace Violence Prevention includes membership from the Department of Health, Vitalité Health Network, Horizon Health Network, Extra-Mural/Ambulance New Brunswick Inc., the New Brunswick Nurses Union, CUPE, the New Brunswick Union, and the New Brunswick Medical Society.
Together, we will develop the appropriate strategies, objectives, measurements and messages that meet the needs of all the organizations represented on the committee. The campaign will provide a common voice in response to escalating violence in New Brunswick workplaces.
