Department/Unit Specific WVP Plans
Department/Unit Specific Workplace Violence Prevention Plans are required for all Medical Center departments and in-patient units that are designated High-Risk Areas and recommended for all other departments and in-patient units. These plans should be considered part of every employee’s basic health and safety responsibilities. They contain guidelines that can be used to assist in the prevention and response to workplace violence incidents.
Department managers and staff are responsible for the review and update of their unit’s Workplace Violence Prevention Plan on an annual basis. This plan should be reviewed with each new staff member, and at least annually with all staff. Keep this plan in your Environment of Care (EOC) manual. This plan will be checked during each safety round and shall be updated/reviewed at least annually.
