Bullying does not occur just in the playground or corporate setting. It also happens in health care where people’s lives are at stake. Bullying in health care can have serious consequences to patient care. This affects how medical errors are made and how LNCs analyze the liability.

I have a 60-minute training with Beth Boynton RN and Alan Rosenstein MD. They share their expertise about this potentially very dangerous behavior pattern.
