Free Domestic Violence Fact Sheet
|
Dear Friend,
By now, you have probably heard about the terrible tragedy that
occurred on Sunday at a nursing home in North Carolina. Our thoughts
and prayers are with the people at Pinelake Health & Rehab and the
family members of those who died. It appears that this horrible
incident, which took the lives of seven residents and one nurse, is a
case of domestic violence.
Because this is such an important issue, we are providing you with a
link from which you may download a Domestic Violence Fact Sheet. This
one page (double-sided) document covers some basic information about
domestic violence--and how it can spill over into the workplace.
Please feel free to make as many copies as you need for distribution to
your staff.
If your nursing assistants would like more information about domestic
violence, please call us at 877.809.5515. We will forward the entire "Understanding
Domestic Violence" inservice to you, free of charge. We do this in an
effort to spread the word about domestic abuse, in the hope that a
similar tragedy never happens again.
Sincerely,
The Team at In the Know
