"The soft approach to tackling #violence against #healthcare workers has been attempted. It is time to take a tough stance against it now."

"We must have laws in place preventing violence against #healthcare workers and against their patients."

"If the dignity of #healthcare workers continues to be violated, people might not continue to work in the healthcare sector."

-Dr Seemin Jamali

That's why it's a matter of life & death.

"As extremism has spread, not just in #Pakistan but around the globe, threats of #violence against #healthcare workers have increased."

--Dr Sania

"The ICRC left us with #sustainable institutions. That was the difference between the support they provided and others."

--Dr Sania recalls ICRC Pakistan's pivotal role in the development of community mechanisms to solve & prevent issues we all face.

A major cause of violence is the provider-patient ratio. There are no quotas for how many patients a #healthcare worker can see in a day.

This contributes to a stressful atmosphere in which reactive #violence can occur.

#BharosaKarein #HCiD

[Digital Street @OnDigitalSt]

A cause for violence against #community health workers (such as #polio teams) was misconceptions - such as about polio #vaccinations and #familyplanning.

We must have education, not ignorance.

The #healthcare worker cadres that face the most violence?
- Security guards
- Nurses
- Ambulance workers

These are the people that keep us safe and respond to emergencies.

If they are unsafe, how will their patients receive the care they need?

33.9% of #healthcare workers have experienced verbal #abuse.

"There needs to be a system for... #data collection."

This sounds like a worthy challenge for #Pakistan's talented #tech entrepreneurs.

On all indicators, #healthcare workers who received interventions such as communication skills and de-escalation training fared better than those left without the tools & training to protect themselves.

[Digital Street @OnDigitalSt]

According to baseline studies, the bulk of the violence against #healthcare workers is reactive.

It can happen anywhere, any time.
