Nursing & Midwifery, March 11
2:00 PM PRESENTATION: Promoting Resilience and Wellbeing: Addressing Occupational Violence in Nursing
Occupational violence poses a significant threat to nurses’ wellbeing and resilience. Nurses experience incidents that can have lasting emotional and professional impacts, yet many provider organisations lack the structures to support them in the moment or afterwards. This session showcases work being done at Metro South to actively reshape how they respond: from training managers to act decisively following incidents, to building taskforces that design debriefing programs and simulation-based support. Join us discover practical, actionable strategies that embed resilience, prioritise staff wellbeing, and create a culture where nurses truly feel safe going home.
Practical strategies to build managerial capacity for immediate response to occupational violence
Methods for developing a structured debriefing and simulation-based support program for staff
Approaches to cultivate a resilient, supportive workplace culture prioritising nurse wellbeing
