| Core Tip |
The ViSHWaS-Caribbean study followed the guiding principles from the ViSHWaS global study to identify the probable risk factors, characteristics, and outcomes of violence on Caribbean healthcare workers (HCWs). The results were in line with previous studies carried out worldwide and showed that a large proportion of Caribbean HCWs were exposed to violence, leading to job dissatisfaction. The solution to this problem would be to conduct longitudinal analysis/research. Stakeholders should enact regulatory changes to lessen this dispute, and social activities are necessary to strengthen the bonds between HCWs and the communities they serve. |
