Reach Out
Published
It's day 4 of the Celebrate Civility challenge. Today's tip is to reach out to coworkers who may be targets of bullying. Bullies typically target people because of a difference in perceived power, position, or authority and that difference can be anything that falls outside the mainstream or group norms.
Recent graduates or nurses in new positions, units, and work environments are more likely to be treated poorly. Sometimes shy or quiet nurses who avoid confrontation can be victimized, too. Make a point to welcome newcomers and come up with ways to help them feel like they’re part of the team.
