Description
Summary:Bullying in nursing is a well-documented phenomenon and is a factor in job satisfaction, nurse retention, and client safety. Both nursing students and nursing staff experience these negative interactions in clinical settings. This study was conducted to refine and improve the cognitive rehearsal training (CRT) intervention. Experiential workshops were conducted with third-year or equivalent baccalaureate nursing students at five different schools of nursing across Canada ( = 329). Students supported the CRT approach as a first response toward dealing with bullying behavior in the health care workplace and offered advice for its improvement. Currently, schools of nursing and health authorities typically use theoretical and online approaches to address bullying. The CRT intervention described in this study is novel as it involves role-play, which promotes learning at a deeper level than didactic approaches. .
