Most hospitals already have a duress or panic-button system installed. The problem is nobody uses it. Fewer than 30% of these systems see active use 90 days after rollout, and 44% of nurses who were physically assaulted last year never activated their system at all. This ebook breaks down why that gap exists (shame, surveillance concerns, and unreliable Wi-Fi based tech), what it actually costs facilities in workers comp claims, nurse turnover, and OSHA penalties, and why regulators like the Joint Commission now ask for activation logs instead of just a written policy. It closes with six diagnostic questions any security director, CNO, or compliance lead can use to test their current system, plus a simple exercise: pull your incident count, pull your activation count, and see how big your own adoption gap really is. It's written for security directors, nursing leaders, EHS/compliance teams, and HR execs who need to know if their WPV program would hold up under an audit or a claim.
