"It wasn't safety first here, it really wasn't," said @PEINursesUnion president Barbara Brookins.
Almost every nurse has experienced workplace violence, with 9 in 10 reporting abuse over the last year. Safe staffing is critical to reducing violence.

"Despite nurses' repeated asks for security at this facility, nothing has been done. This, as they work 16-hour-plus shifts to keep the ER doors open because of the staffing challenges they continue to deal with."
