Participate in a Study About Moral Distress in the ICU

The purpose of this study is to assess critical care nurses’ levels and causes of moral distress during the COVID-19 pandemic. A secondary aim of this study is to compare moral distress levels based on demographic and work characteristics.

To be eligible for this study, you must be a licensed nurse (LPN, RN, or APRN) who has spent at least 50% of your working hours over the last six months providing direct bedside care in a critical care setting. You also must be a staff nurse at the facility you currently work at, not an agency or travel nurse. Participation consists of a one-time survey and should take approximately twenty minutes.

This research study is being conducted by a Clinical Nurse Specialist student at the St. John Fisher College Wegmans School of Nursing. Please contact the principal investigator, Johannah Acito, RN, BSN, at jsa00338@sjfc.edu.
