HCA Resilience Course

The Duke Resiliency Collaborative is a series of 5 webinars which are 60 minutes in length. Surveys will be administered to research participants before the introductory webinar and following the last webinar. The surveys will take approximately 10 minutes or less. The questions are designed to evaluate resiliency at the individual and work environment level, and to measure the effects of participating in the Resilience Collaborative. The web-based survey will be distributed and collected electronically using the secure, HIPAA-compliant Qualtrics survey research suite software, to protect your privacy and confidentiality. Your participation will end after you complete the follow up survey, unless you chose to withdraw early from the study
