NHS Lanarkshire said employees at University Hospital Wishaw are being targeted 'almost daily'.
One of Scotland's largest health boards has restricted visits to a maternity unit over the "almost daily" verbal abuse directed at staff.
Cheryl Clark said: "Over the past few months, a number of our staff - particularly in scan and post natal ward - have been subject to abuse by families and visitors accessing our services. "In fact, some of our staff have been chased out the wards and been subject to a torrent of vile language."
