About this Special Topic List

Workplace Violence in Healthcare is a special topic list from Doody's Review Service. This list was curated by health science librarians and released in July 2024. The list identifies books which explore topics such as hospital-based injuries, patient violence, bullying, incivility, and discrimination. Numerous titles are solution-focused, covering different safety measures, violence prevention programs, and de-escalation tactics. Some titles cover emerging topics in workplace violence, while others offer historical context for current problems that can be traced back decades.

A group of Advocate Health - Midwest librarian reviewed the Workplace Violence in Healthcare list to determine which books were already in our collection and to evaluate which additional books to purchase. The list below shows all the Workplace Violence in Healthcare books from the Doody's special topic list that are available through the Advocate Health - Midwest Library.
