Violencia en el entorno sanitarioun análisis teórico y metodológico

Resum

Violence has been an omnipresent event in human history and is still present in many environments in people's daily lives. One of these environments is the work environment, and more specifically, the healthcare system. When we talk about violence in this environment we are referring to physical or verbal actions intentionally directed against people in the performance of their work and that threaten their safety, health and well-being, while putting at risk the proper functioning of the organization. In this Thesis we have developed a theoretical reflection on the violence committed in healthcare environments against healthcare professionals. Furthermore, we have reviewed one of the problems faced by the research against the violence of healthcare professionals: the methodology for its study.
