The Outlook on Nursing survey aims to find out more about nurses’ work environments. This research will help us examine the relationships between nurse staffing, nurses’ work environment and how this impacts patient care.
The CFNU has partnered with the University of Toronto’s School of Nursing on the first anonymous nationwide assessment of the realities of nurses’ work environments in every health sector, whether in hospitals, home care, the community or long-term care. Our aim is to present a snapshot of what is happening in hospital wards, in the community, and in long-term care facilities on a daily basis in the wake of hearing from our members about a deepening crisis of care.
