Abstract
Nurses working in hospital environments are exposed to a number of occupational health hazards. For five categories of hazards we present research-based documentation of potential and actual health-related problems, and avenues for health promotion and prevention of exposures. Both personal and organizational responsibilities for self-health protection are addressed.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
