Sexual Harassment Prevention In Healthcare For Managers

Healthcare managers and supervisors have a duty to create a safe, comfortable environment for all employees. This includes a workplace free of sexual harassment and fear and full of respect. This is especially true in the healthcare field where it is estimated that 80% of nurses and 30% of doctors have experienced sexual harassment by a patient or a co-worker.

Through this course, healthcare managers and supervisors learn the vital information necessary to prevent and recognize sexual harassment behaviors, committed by employees, non-employees and patients, while also learning how to respond to sexual harassment behaviors that are reported to them. Detailing both types of sexual harassment, Quid pro Quo and Hostile Environment, this course shows managers the various activities for which they can be held liable for managerial decisions they make, or are claimed to have been made, on the basis of sexual favors.

Use this course to prevent and correct all forms of sexual harassment in the workplace and teach your healthcare managers and supervisors the serious impact both types of sexual harassment can have on your organization’s morale, patient care standards, and reputation.
