| Summary: | Aggression toward medical personnel has become a persistent concern within contemporary healthcare environments, shaped by institutional pressures and shifting social expectations. This volume examines workplace violence from medico-legal and occupational perspectives, drawing on empirical evidence from healthcare professionals. It addresses physical and verbal aggression, psychological strain, and the impact of conflict on clinical performance and professional dignity. Legal protections, institutional responsibilities, and preventive frameworks are discussed alongside organizational culture and reporting practices. By situating violent incidents within their broader clinical context, the book offers a careful exploration of professional safety and the conditions that sustain quality care. |
