Reply With QuoteJust finished taking it. I would also like to encourage anyone reading this to do the same and help out a fellow nurse. Good luck on your graduate degree.
Hey everyone! I'm a pedi-rn currently in CT.
I am working on my thesis (the last step to get my masters), and part of that requires I conduct a survey. My study is regarding how the current nursing work environment plays a role in the critical nursing shortage. If you could PLEASE fill this out in the next week I would dearly appreciate it. Also, if you can forward this on to anyone you know who is currently working as a nurse (in any capacity), in the continental US, I'd be quite thankful.
Please be as honest as possible, this is an anonymous survey.

I just finnished and would like to add somthing.
:nurse-soapbox:
I live in a small town, we have a School of Nursing here that turns out about 30 new nurses every 6 months and a lot of those students are locals. This combined with the fact that many of the OLDER Nurse who are at retirment age RETIRE and the next day go back to the SAME JOB on a perdium basis. This makes for a very competitive market in my hometown and employers GET TO PICK AND CHOOSE. This makes the work environment VERY HOSTILE. Those of us who count ourselves among the NEWER nurses just want a chance to get experience, but the older "NURSES WITH EXPERIENCE" argue that they are KEEPING the EXPERIENCE they have working for the better good of all. MY argument to this is... WHEN are the NEW nurses going to GET EXPERIENCED if the older RETIRED nurses are taking all the jobs that offer those experiences needed to build a better workforce for the future of nursing.
To make a long story short(er) WE in my area have yet to feel the effects of the NURSING SHORTAGE.
Why dosn't someone do a study on the effects of this fenominon on the future of nursing, rather than the effects the nursing shortage is having today. What are we going to do about tomarrow? After all it is only a day away and we havent even thought about it seriously enough yet.:nurse-soapbox:
"BECAUSE I SAID SO" IS NOT A GOOD ENOUGH REASON.
