“…Horizontal violence, one type of workplace violence, has been described as "intergroup conflict that is manifested in overt and covert non-physical hostility such as sabotaging, infighting, scapegoating and bickering" (Duffy 1995). Bullying is a term that is also used for horizontal violence (McAvoy and Murtagh 2003).…”

Abstract:The complex features of the nursing shortage, horizontal violence, generational diversity and healthy work environments have frequently been addressed within the context of their singular characteristics, challenges and potential solutions. Yet it is the interrelationships of these phenomena that holds solutions to the overarching challenges facing nurses and the nursing profession. Through an inductive approach, a preliminary discussion and related strategies to address the highlighted challenges have been proposed.

“…For example, Curtis, Bowen and Reid investigated nursing student's experiences of horizontal violence on clinical placement (15). Horizontal violence is defined within the literature as interpersonal conflict among peers (16). The researchers found that 57% of students had experienced horizontal violence while on clinical placement, with 90% indicating that these experiences would impact on their future career choices.…”

“…While this study was limited in that it had a very small sample size and a low response rate, with participants potentially excluding themselves from the study if they did not have any experience of violence to report, even one case is worthy of further investigation by educational institutions as the protection of students is paramount. Other concerns regarding negative experiences while on clinical placement, including physical injury and manual handling (17,18), violence (19,20) and bullying (15,16,(21)(22)(23), have been reported in nursing allied health fields. While these studies were not paramedic specific, it is reasonable to assume that there may be some parallels given the nature of the work encountered.…”

This pilot study intended to augment current literature in the clinical placement field by investigating the frequency and nature of adverse health events experiences by paramedic students undertaking ambulance clinical placements. Supports accessed post event were also reviewed. A purposive sample of fifty-six paramedic students completed the questionnaire. The results indicate that a number of students experience adverse health events while on clinical placement, with fourteen cases of verbal abuse, one case of physical abuse, nine cases of sexualised behavior and seven cases of psychological distress reported. While some case related incidents were flagged by ambulance services and followed up by peer support, students did not initiate any formal support processes themselves. Moreover, no student filed a formal report regarding any of the incidents raised. The results of this pilot study require further investigation. In the interim, the benefits of clinical placements must be weighed against their risks, and processes put in place to minimize the risk to students undertaking clinical placements.

“…The practices discussed can usefully be divided into two main analytical categories: horizontal workplace bullying and hierarchical workplace bullying. The former has been written about in a number of nursing related publications (Duffy, 1995;Lee, 2001;Strawbridge, 2001;Hockley, 2002) and refers to workplace bullying that occurs between workers or professionals on the same level, in the same occupation. Whilst a full discussion of this type of workplace bullying is beyond the scope of this chapter, it is worth noting that it is a practice engendered within a broader culture of bullying.…”
