Abstract

As the issue of incivility, lateral and horizontal violence, and bullying continue in nursing, strategies are needed to address and eliminate hostile work environments. Educational activities not only raise awareness of these issues, but often provide skills, training, and knowledge of how to reduce the frequency and impact of incivility.
