Horizontal or lateral violence is described by Catalano (2015) as having “many of the same characteristics as bullying except that it takes place almost exclusively in the work setting” (p. 415). Historically, it was often overlooked as a type of hazing in the profession. Today, violence in our culture is a serious threat in all workplace environments with nursing being no exception. For this discussion, review the attached power point presentation on the topic and begin your discussion by answering the exercise questions from the ‘Exercise for Discussion’ slide. Next, respond to your classmates with your analysis of ‘how they handled the lateral violence example they shared.’ This is your opportunity to support their actions or, using the CUS model, state what could have been done differently. https://harfordcc.blackboard.com/bbcswebdav/pid-189939-dt-forum-rid-65345935_1/xid-65345935_1https://1drv.ms/w/s!AnPKx8pkf24JgqIIiQ6cs1PmYP7maQ?e=VWWnKL
