Role of violence exposure on altruistic behavior and grit among emergency nurses in rural hospitals

Abstract

This research underscores the significance of assessing personal assets and their relation to violence exposure. It highlights a critical need for resilience-building initiatives that empower nurses to build both altruism and grit among nurses while addressing the impact of workplace violence. In addition, nursing policies should include specific provisions for their protection, such as adjusting shift patterns to reduce their exposure to high-risk periods, ensuring adequate staffing levels, and implementing buddy systems.
