Researchers at the University of Arizona are conducting a study to understand the work experiences of nurses. If you are currently working full-time as a nurse at a hospital or health care facility, we invite you to participate by completing two 15-minute surveys: one today and another in two weeks. As a token of appreciation for your time we will provide you up to $20 in two Tango gift cards (www.tangocard.com). To participate visit:  https://uarizona.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_74BKOYVwkakLu8m  The password for this survey is: uaNU53!  

We only have spots available for the first 185 who sign up. In order to participate you must sign up and complete the first survey by April 16, 2021 at 11:59PM.  An Institutional Review Board responsible for human subjects research at The University of Arizona reviewed this research project and found it to be acceptable, according to applicable state and federal regulations and University policies designed to protect the rights and welfare of participants in research.
