Some of these outbursts have resulted in permanent injury, even death, to the health care worker. The book is structured so that the notion of violence becomes more explicit with each succeeding chapter, until finally the violent outburst arrives. It offers practical prevention and management strategies, based on sound research, and  provides a comprehensive view of the problem which will be of value to people working in a variety of clinical situations.\u003cli\u003eTopical, vital subject\u003c\/li\u003eExcellent mix of theory and practice\u003cli\u003eWide appeal to a variety of nurses and other professionals\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSection 1: General Overview of Violence and Aggression\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003eThe Dynamic of Violence and Aggression\u003cbr\u003ePhases of Violence and Aggression\u003cbr\u003eSection 2: Options Available in the Phases of Violence and Aggression\u003cbr\u003ePhase 1: Phase of Relative Normality\u003cbr\u003eObservation, Surveillance and Diversionary Techniques\u003cbr\u003eResources and Staffing \u003cbr\u003ePhase 2: Phase of Pre-Aggression. \u003cbr\u003eIntervention Modalities and Models\u003cbr\u003eControlling Measures and Management \u003cbr\u003ePhase 3: Phase of Attack \u003cbr\u003eIsolation Techniques\u003cbr\u003ePhysical Restraint \u003cbr\u003eMechanical Control \u003cbr\u003eChemical Control\u003cbr\u003eSection 3: Corollaries of Violence and Aggression\u003cbr\u003eSerious Situations\u003cbr\u003eInjuries, Job Stress and Burnout\u003cbr\u003eLearning from Experience\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Psychiatric nursing [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Psychiatric nursing\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Psychiatric%20nursing%20%5BMQCL5%5D%22\"\u003eMQCL5\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Churchill Livingstone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46648312922392,"sku":"9780443059346","price":27.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780443059346.jpg?v=1694979711","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/management-of-violence-and-aggression-a-manual-for-nurses-and-health-care-workers-paperback-9780443059346","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
