Tennessee Nurse Workplace Violence and Burnout Survey

Hello,

My name is Flo Weierbach, and I am a Registered Nurse and a  Professor of Nursing at East Tennessee State University (ETSU). Myself and colleagues from ETSU, Drs. Teresa Carnevale, Kim Ferguson, Jennifer Hitt and Kendrea Todt are conducting a research study addressing nurses experience with workplace violence and burnout.  The title of the study is “Tennessee Nurse Workplace Violence and Burnout.”

I am inviting you to participate in a brief online survey addressing your experiences as a nurse and workplace violence. The online RedCap survey should take 10-15 minutes to complete. If you have completed this survey – Thank You.

Please recall that you may only respond once. Also, many inquiries have been made regarding the email requesting responses. This is a legitimate study, originating from ETSU with approval from ESTU Institutional review board (IRB).

Thank you for considering participation in this study.

Sincerely,

Flo Weierbach, PhD, MPH, RN
