Dear Nurse Leader:
 
My name is Angela M. Linger, and I am a doctoral student under the direction of Dr. Lori Wieters in the College of Doctoral studies at Grand Canyon University. I am conducting a research study to explore how nurse leaders, who work in medical settings, describe their leadership capacity when leading through public crisis situations. I would like to invite you to participate in my study. The information gathered from this study will provide insight into the components of successful leadership during a crisis and influence future leaders.
 
You may participate in this study if you meet the following criteria:
 
1. Individuals who work as nurse leader.
2. Nurse leaders are defined as an individual in a supervisory role during a period of public crisis.
3. Nurse leaders who worked in a medical setting through public crisis situations.
4. Individuals credentialed or authorized to work as nurse leaders.
5. Participants will confirm employment during a crisis situation, and answer demographic questions on years of education, type of medical setting worked, and crisis training.

You may not be in the study if you do not meet the following criteria:

1. If you did not work as a nurse leader.
2. If you are not a nurse leader who worked in a medical setting through public crisis situations. Individuals who do not work as nurse leader.
3.  Individuals who did not work within a medical setting through public crisis situations.
4. Individuals who are not credentialed or authorized to work as nurse leaders.
5. Participants who cannot confirm employment during a crisis situation, or answer demographic questions on years of education, type of medical setting worked, and crisis training.
6. Individuals who do not consent to be in the study. Or any situation that would be unethical for participation within this study.
7. Individuals who are not accessible by remote access via Zoom. Or those individuals who do not wish to be recorded. (Confidentiality will be maintained, and recordings only occur to ensure the accuracy of data acquired for research purposes.)

The activities for this research project will include participating in a semi-structured interview or mini-focus group.
 
·      Semi-structured interview – 45-60 minutes via Zoom.
·      Mini focus group participation – 60-90 minutes via Zoom.
 
Your participation in this study is voluntary, you may withdraw your participation in this study at any time. All data in this study will be protected by placing the recorded data, uploaded as digital content or audio files onto a password-protected personal computer into a password-protected folder.
