DESCRIPTION OF RESEARCH STUDY
This study seeks to identify trends in the competency, beliefs, coping strategies and experience of nurses and physicians who regularly work with patients who have experienced a perinatal loss. Information will only be gathered from you by the following survey. If you say YES, then your participation will last approximately 5-10 minutes.
RISKS AND BENEFITS
RISKS: If you decide to participate in this study, you may face a risk of some emotional discomfort as you recall the events, thoughts and feelings associated with your work. The researchers strive to reduce this risk by expressing the voluntary nature of participation and the option to withdraw from this study at any time without penalty. The survey does not ask identifying information (e.g. names or locations) so your responses will be anonymous.
BENEFITS: Although there are no direct benefits for participating in the study, you may gain personal insight or benefit from reflecting on your experiences, thoughts, and feelings. The researchers hope that the information gathered within this research study will contribute to the overall knowledge and understanding of how to best support hospital staff who care for bereaved parents.
