N2  - The impact of psychological trauma in the workplace often goes unaddressed. The untreated aftermath of these critical incidents may manifest itself in various states of anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, and even subsequent violence by the victims. This paper reviews common presentations of untreated traumatic events and provides suggestions for outreach to untreated employee victims as well as basic prevention strategies to reduce the risk of additional episodes of violence and enhance safety in health care facilities, including long-term care (LTC) and special-care units (SCU) for dementia patients.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
