VDMC Zero Tolerance Policy
The Doctors, Nurses & Admin Staff in this Practice have the right to work in an environment free from any threatening, intimidating, aggressive physical or verbal behaviour.
Our staff come to work to care for others. We aim to always treat our patients with courtesy, dignity and respect & expect our patients to treat all our staff in a similarly respectful way. Most people do this - THANK YOU for being one of them.
As a Practice we are very aware that visiting your GP can be stressful and patients may be feeling unwell. Delays in obtaining appointments and waiting times in the surgery (due to unforeseen circumstances and emergency appointments), can also add to this.
However
this does not excuse staff being subjected to any form of Abuse or Aggression - this includes shouting, swearing or the use of offensive or derogatory language.
