Article Abstract
Verbal mistreatment of staff by patients is common in health care settings. Experiencing or witnessing mistreatment can have harmful psychological impacts, affecting well-being and clinical practice. As part of an effort to become an antiracist organization, an academic community mental health center based in Connecticut developed an initiative to address verbal mistreatment. Training in the Expect, Recognize, Address, Support, Establish (ERASE) framework was provided to 140 staff members. This training and subsequent actions to enhance the culture of safety were perceived as helpful by staff. Further development of the initiative is proceeding as the center's primary performance improvement program.
