Confidential case study: How one health system responded to a 40% surge in workplace violence
A Northeast health system faced a 40% rise in workplace violence, particularly in pediatric behavioral health. Staff morale was low. Reporting was inconsistent. Rural response times lagged up to 15 minutes.
Leadership knew it couldn’t continue.
This case study details how the system implemented a connected safety platform — including 15,000 wearable alert buttons and real-time monitoring across 2.76M sq. ft. — and achieved measurable change within 6 months.
Assaults dropped 30%.
Incident reporting rose 50%.
75% of staff now say they feel safe at work.
Learnings include:
