Heidi Linhoff, a registered nurse, spoke with Liz Collin about how young patients assault hospital staff without consequences.
Heidi Linhoff, a registered nurse at Fairview Riverside Children's Emergency Department in Minneapolis, joined Liz Collin on her podcast. Linhoff spoke about some of the harrowing stories of young patients assaulting nurses and hospital staff without consequences.
She explained how some staff members have had their jobs ended due to the injuries they suffered—and how others have chosen to leave out of fear.
She detailed stories of nurses and other staff suffering concussions, broken bones, and taking punches from patients.
“The injuries have forced a lot of people to leave because they're scared,” she said. “And I was literally dumbfounded that we do nothing, that it seems to be acceptable to, you know, to assault a healthcare worker.”
