Dear Nurse Colleague:
My name is Karen Daley. I am currently a PhD student in nursing at Boston College and am writing to make you aware of a study I am conducting for my dissertation research entitled: The Lived Experience of Percutaneous Injuries among Registered Nurses: A Phenomenological Study.
I believe a better understanding of the meanings associated with percutaneous injuries and the extent to which they impact nurses’ lives may have important implications for post-exposure care. I hope to enlist your help in making nurses aware of the opportunity to share their experience through participation in this study.
Registered nurses who have sustained a sharps injury within the previous six months are eligible for participation, which involves one or more face-to-face interviews. Nurses interested in more information about the study can contact me directly by phone at (617) 596-1381 or email: daleykg@bc.edu .
Thank-you in advance for whatever help you can provide in making injured nurses aware of the study.
