    Abstract:
    Violence in the workplace has escalated, becoming a growing occupational hazard for health care workers today. Training and education strategies to de-escalate and prevent the rise in violent assaults in the health care setting are needed. A violence prevention program was developed at William Beaumont Army Medical Center to educate the operating room (OR) staff about prevention and intervention strategies to de-escalate or prevent violent assaults in their workplace.
