Experiencing aggression in the workplace is a challenge faced by many doctors and other healthcare workers.  Consequences of experiencing challenging behaviour from patients or carers can have significant effects on individuals physical and mental wellbeing.  This workshop is designed to equip Members to recognise signs of increasing agitation and defuse escalation of aggressive behaviour in the workplace.
