Resumen
This study reviews the Family Health Strategy team's workplace violence studies. Identifying and understanding workplace violence may contribute to combating it. The method chosen was a narrative review that systematically gathers and synthesizes research results. The main aspects regarding violence between patients and health workers found in the literature were: the types of violence, the prevalence of violence in the workplace, factors associated with risks, the consequences for the workers and prevention of these events. Health professionals may simultaneously have to deal with victims of violence, be the target of violence, or even be institutional perpetrators of violence against patients they serve. Health workers are exposed to various forms of violence, bringing serious health consequences. Other studies need to be developed related to the theme, especially in our country.
