Abstract
Mistreatment by patients is unfortunately common in clinical medicine, including geriatric subspecialties. Despite the prevalence of this problem, there are few standardized approaches for addressing it at both interpersonal and institutional levels. The "ERASE" framework is a novel, practical approach for addressing mistreatment by patients. "ERASE" includes Expecting and preparing for mistreatment by patients, Recognizing mistreatment, Addressing mistreatment in real time, Supporting members of the healthcare team who have been mistreated, and Establishing a positive institutional culture. The framework may prove particularly helpful and applicable to providers specializing in geriatrics and can be used by administrators, educators, and all members of the healthcare team to promote safe, dignified clinical care and learning environments.
