Season 35 Episode 5: Gegijzeld tijdens de nachtdienst

Insults, threats, and even fights with patients. Three out of four healthcare workers experience workplace aggression. What happens if they are physically or mentally injured? Who cares for them when the fear persists and the nightmares persist? Nurses who were strangled and held hostage by patients share their stories. Trapped by this workplace aggression, they feel not only unsafe but also abandoned. Good aftercare seems to depend on individual managers, and financial support is often lacking. This lack of support creates new trauma.
