The objective of the study was to report on what violence-based training home health care aides received, their participation in health promotion classes, and home health care aides' experience with workplace violence. In 2013, a mail survey was completed by 513 home health care aides in the state of New Jersey. Ninety-four percent of the respondents were female. Respondents whose agency was part of a hospital were more likely to receive violence-based safety training than respondents whose agency was not part of a hospital ( = .0313). When the perpetrator of violence was a patient or family member, the respondents experienced verbal abuse the most (26%), then physical assault (16%) and exposure to bodily fluids (13%). Home health care aides whose agency was part of a hospital were more likely to receive violence-based safety training. Training is an important component of a workplace violence prevention program.
该研究的目的是报告家庭健康护理助手接受的基于暴力的培训内容、他们参与健康促进课程的情况以及家庭健康护理助手遭遇工作场所暴力的经历。2013年，新泽西州的513名家庭健康护理助手完成了一项邮件调查。94%的受访者为女性。其所在机构隶属于医院的受访者比所在机构不隶属于医院的受访者更有可能接受基于暴力的安全培训（P = 0.0313）。当暴力行为的实施者是患者或家庭成员时，受访者遭受言语虐待的情况最为常见（26%），其次是身体攻击（16%）和接触体液（13%）。其所在机构隶属于医院的家庭健康护理助手更有可能接受基于暴力的安全培训。培训是工作场所暴力预防计划的一个重要组成部分。
