Joe Courtney Discusses Workforce Development and Workplace Violence Prevention with Acting Secretary

Published | Video Starts at 02:06

Well, I'm sure we lost a valuable compassionate nurse who was a victim of workplace violence. She was stabbed to death on a home health visit with a very high risk patient. Never should have happened again. OSHA has done an investigation [into the nurse's death]. There is a penalty, but it's an after the fact and relatively meager amount in terms of the value of a human life that was there. (02:06–02:08)
