  • Title: Gangs in hospitals.
    Author: Melnick MF.
    Journal: J Healthc Prot Manage; 1997; 13(2):37-45. PubMed ID: 10173428.
    Abstract:
    What occurs when a gang member presents himself or herself to a healthcare environment? What can the security and nursing departments do to respond to the potential danger and prevent a possible incident? Healthcare institutions, says the author, should adopt standards to reduce and prevent gang activity and make both the healthcare environment and society safer places.
