As stated in the Constitution No. 44 year 2008 regarding Hospitals, it is explained that hospitals are healthcare service institutions for the society with special characteristics which are influenced by the development of the healthcare science.

Yet, it is not seldom that the hospitals and its officials, like the medical workers and other staff, like nurses, pharmacists, managers, and administrators who work in hospitals experience both verbal and nonverbal violence from the patients and the family. There are also cases of medical malpractice.
