Quantitative surveys will be conducted with registered and licensed practical nurses in hospitals and long-term care sites throughout the Avalon Peninsula who meet project criteria; qualitative interviews with a subset of the survey population will provide further insights. Findings will be used to develop workplace support, transition and mentorship programs to address CALD-IENs’ challenges and stressors in their workplace.
