Hello

We have actually had a decrease in assaults in March and April. They are starting to increase to a pre COVID state.

Hi all,

We have seen an increase in assaults over the last couple of months - patient to employee, both verbal and physical.

I am wondering if others are also seeing an increase in assaults to healthcare workers.

Thank you
