The prevalence and impact of unprofessional behaviour among hospital workers: a survey in seven Australian hospitals.

Tolerance for low level poor behaviour may be an enabler for more serious misbehaviour that endangers staff wellbeing and patient safety. Training staff about speaking up is required, together with organisational processes for effectively eliminating unprofessional behaviour. PMID: 33174226 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
