People should not think that it’s ok to hit anyone, especially nurses. Even if you’re mentally crazy or angry or whatever you’re feeling, it doesn’t give you the right to hit nurses. Violence is not ok and should not be tolerated. Hospital administrations should support nurses and those closest to the patients.
