Waikato DHB launches zero tolerance to violence campaign

Let us get on with our jobs free from abuse, violence and aggression. If you don’t, we’ll call the police. It’s your choice of treatment.

In the past year our doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, social workers, health care assistants, attendants and reception staff were punched, kicked, nudged, bitten, abused and spat at while they were caring for our patients.
