Violence can have far-reaching impacts on the well-being of staff in long-term care and the older adults for which they provide care. The general public expects long-term care to be safe for everyone. Yet, violence is common in the long-term care sector. It occurs in different forms (e.g., verbal, physical, and sexual) and in different directions (e.g., from residents/clients toward staff and from staff toward residents/clients). Some violence is referred to as responsive behaviours, recognizing that the actions, words or gestures of person living with dementia have meaning and may reflect something wrong in their social and physical environment or an unmet need (Alzheimer Society, 2019). In this report, we focus on violence toward staff within long-term residential care (referred to as personal care homes in Manitoba) and home care settings. We review the findings of a provincial survey, which is part of a larger project called Safe Places for Aging and Care. We outline the types of training staff receive to prevent violence, types and prevalence of violence, and staff recommendations for preventing violence.
