Examples of Horizontal Violence

[UnderpaidNurse]

hi,

i am preparing a presentation on horizontal violence, a.k.a. how nurses eat their young .

i have all sorts of statistics but what i am lacking are anecdotal stories. if you could relay some of what you have seen, or have happen to you, i would appreciate it.

thank you soooo much,

erika

Search the forums for nurse bullying, horizontal violence, nurses eating their young, &c. There are several out there. There are also websites like http://www.bullyonline.org/ which deal with this issue. I'd also suggest you get permission of the folks whose stories you use in your presentation, if you haven't thought of this already.

Very good suggestion, thank you. I pose it to the people responding, if you would not like me to use your scenario as an example, just let me know after your post. I will not be using any names.

Thank you
