Posted on April 25, 2019 by David Bickford | No Comments

Carrie Grinstead, winner of MLGSCA’s research grant this past winter, will share about her research experience at MLA next month.  Come learn from the Research Training Institute fellows and be inspired.  Congratulations, Carrie!

 

Title: Elevate Your Practice with Research: RTI Fellows and Faculty Share Their Experience Designing and Conducting Research

 

Time: Sunday, May 5, noon-1:55 pm

 

Location: Columbus AB (East Tower, Ballroom/Gold Level)

 

Carrie’s study investigates hospital-based nurses’ behaviors and feeling surrounding online materials for patient and family education. The design is qualitative; with data gathered through in-depth, semi-structured, individual interviews with nurses. Questions investigate nurses’ awareness of various materials and satisfaction with content, as well as any personal and patient-, unit-, and hospital-level factors that may affect or complicate their decisions to use one source over others. This rich data can be used to inform later work, including generalizable quantitative survey studies; outreach and education to various stakeholders, including nurses, managers, and quality and safety administrators; and analysis of the effectiveness of online patient education materials.
