Second Nursing Times mental health campaign survey

The coronavirus pandemic has seen unprecedented strain placed on an already stretched nursing workforce.

In April 2020, Nursing Times launched the Covid-19: Are You OK? campaign to raise awareness of nurse mental health.

As part of the campaign launch, we carried out a survey at around the time that cases of Covid-19 were first spiking to find out how nurses were feeling.

A year later, we now want to rerun this survey to assess the current state of nurses’ mental health and wellbeing and the support that is being provided.

Please take a few minutes to complete our short survey, which be used as the basis of a news story and will inform the direction of our ongoing campaign.  

Your time and input are greatly appreciated.

Please press 'OK' to start the survey; thank you.
