        Great way to end Nurses' Week - by bringing awareness to the fact that violence against nurses is NOT uncommon.

        As a nurse, I agree. The verbal and sometime physical abuse we have to deal with is astounding.

        We see people at their worst and we don't hesitate to jump in to take care of them - unfortunately that usually makes us the punching bag.
