A Milwaukee nurse is sharing her story, after being attacked by a patient. It comes at a time when nurses are already in short supply. This nurse came forward in hopes of stopping this abuse from happening to anyone else. A new survey from The American College of Emergency Physicians found that more than 8 in 10 emergency physicians believe the rate of violence in ERs has increased. Milwaukee registered nurse Joni Acala agrees. She says it took more than a month to share with her close friends the attack she endured on Sept. 24.
