Workplace Violence Clinical Trial
Official title:
Violence Against Health Care Workers: Understanding Context Through Citizen Science and Measuring a De-escalation Training Intervention Effectiveness in Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo and Iraq
The general objective of the project is to assess whether a violence de-escalating training for health professionals and of a publicly displayed Code of Conduct (a set of rules developed through a citizen science and co-design approach) for both health professionals and clients at the level of the health facility, can reduce the incidence and severity of episodes of violence, and to identify the most cost-effective way to implement these interventions in rural Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and in the mega city of Baghdad, Iraq.
The study will adopt a stepped-wedge cluster-randomized intervention trial (SW-CRT) design to assess the two intervention components, a violence de-escalating training and the implementation of the code of conduct co-developed during the formative qualitative phase. The study will adopt a closed cohort with repeated measurements on the same participants (nurses in DRC and junior doctors in Baghdad) and will involve the unidirectional transition of each enrolled cluster (health facilities in DRC and secondary hospitals in Baghdad) from the control (no intervention) to the intervention sequence in a randomized sequential manner according to a predefined roll out process. ;
