Abstract
Incivility in nursing is a pervasive and evasive problem that many nurses do not easily recognize or may simply shrug off as “normal.” However, incivility produces a hostile work environment and can jeopardize safety. A study was conducted to (a) determine nurses’ ability to recognize incivility in nursing after an online educational intervention on incivility, (b) ascertain the effectiveness of online education toward assisting nurses with understanding how to ward off this behavior, and (c) determine the types and effects of incivility participants experienced. Findings suggest that education on incivility may assist nurses with identifying uncivil behaviors exhibited by nurse peers and help them understand strategies to combat it. The types of incivility reported by participants were similar to findings of other studies; effects included unsafe behaviors and somatic consequences.
