Hospital Unit Team Virtuousness Scores

This ongoing study is exploring the relationships between hospital unit team virtuousness scores and eight hospital unit measures. Team virtuousness refers to a team climate in which virtues and character strengths are practiced, supported, and encouraged.

Students who work on this study will help manage implementation of an online team virtuousness questionnaire and gather hospital unit data. A statistician will analyze the data to determine any associations between hospital unit team virtuousness scores and unit measures of quality of patient care, patient satisfaction, and unit staff engagement and turnover.

If interested, students can also participate in virtual and/or in-person meetings with nurse leaders and statisticians and help develop posters and/or PowerPoint presentations for conferences. If funding is available and students are interested, they can participate in conference presentations as well.
