Home Healthcare Workers
How to Prevent Violence on the Job
Home healthcare workers can be vulnerable as they face an unprotected and unpredictable environment each time they enter a client’s community and home. The spectrum of violence ranges from verbal abuse, to stalking or threats of assault, to homicide. Verbal abuse from the client, family members, or people in the community is a form of workplace violence. Verbal abuse may be subtle, such as asking for help beyond the scope of the job (such as with cleaning), or it may be obvious, such as complaining about job performance or worker appearance—or even threatening to cause harm.
EMPLOYERS SHOULD
• Establish a zero-tolerance policy for all incidents of violence.
• Train workers on recognizing and preventing workplace violence.
• Investigate all reports of violence.
• Work with police to identify dangerous neighborhoods where special precautions need to be taken and provide that information to employees.
EMPLOYEES SHOULD
• Participate in violence-prevention training.
• Report to your employer all incidents of violence, no matter how minor.
MANAGING VIOLENT SITUATIONS
• Consider working with an escort in high-crime areas, and if possible, schedule visits during daylight hours.
• Be sure of the location and have accurate directions to the house or apartment.
• Always let your employer know your location and when to expect you to report back.
• When driving alone, have the windows rolled up and doors locked.
• Park the vehicle in a well-lit area, away from large trees or shrubs where a person could hide.
• Keep healthcare equipment, supplies, and personal belongings locked out of sight in the trunk of the vehicle.
• Before getting out of the car, check the surrounding location and activity. If you feel uneasy, do not get out of the car.

Safety in the Community: It is very important to this Agency that our staff remains safe at all times. Should you perceive a situation to be unsafe, first take appropriate steps to ensure your safety and then immediately call the Agency. The following guidelines have been established to assist you in maintaining your safety:
■ Wear your name badge at all times.
• Carry a charged cell phone at all times.
■ Call patients’ homes in advance to alert them to your estimated time of arrival.
• Know your route. If you get lost, look for a safe place to stop and ask / call for additional directions.
• If needed, ask the patient I caregiver for further directions to the home.
• Request that pets are properly secured before your arrival. If pets are known to be menacing, back away. Never extend your hand out to the pet; never run from animals. Walk slowly around animals so that you do not frighten them.
■ Do not carry a purse. Lock your purse in the trunk of your car or hide it from visibility in your car.
■ Have your nursing bag/equipment ready before exiting from the vehicle. Keep one arm free.
• Keep your vehicle in good working order and ensure it has sufficient gas.
• In the winter, store a blanket in your vehicle; in the summer, a thermos of cool water.
• Keep a snack in the glove compartment.
• If you have car trouble, turn on the emergency flashers, call for assistance and wait for the police.
• Keep your car locked when parked or driving. Keep windows closed.
• Cross to the other side of the street when passing a group of strangers [if you are uncomfortable].
• Carry car keys in your hand. The pointed ends of the keys between your fingers may make an effective weapon.
• Park in full view of the patient’s residence. Avoid parking in alleys or deserted side streets.
• Walk directly to the patient’s residence in a professional and business-like manner.
• Use common walkways in buildings. Avoid isolated stairwells.
• Always knock on the door before entering a patient’s home.
■ Notify the Agency immediately if you encounter any incident that may jeopardize your personal safety.
■ Seek medical attention as needed.
• If you feel that you are in imminent danger, dial 911.
• In the event of a robbery, never resist theft of the nursing bag.
• If patient’s relatives or neighbors become a safety problem, notify the Agency immediately of the hazard.

Any employee who feels that he/she has been sexually harassed should report this immediately to their Manager/Supervisor. An investigation of the allegation will ensue.
