Dr. Olga Ehrlich, PhD, RN, CHPN, assistant professor of nursing at Oakland University School of Nursing is inviting you to participate in an anonymous survey. The survey has been designated as exempt human subjects research by the Oakland University Institutional Review Board.

Dr. Ehrlich is conducting a survey to understand the needs of healthcare professionals working at rural Michigan hospitals when it comes to providing palliative (sometimes referred to as “supportive”) care services at their institutions. Please note, this survey is not focused on hospice care, which is not provided by hospitals. Responses from this 10-question secure online survey will provide me with information to use in developing and seeking funding for a primary palliative care capacity-building program to be offered at no cost to health care professionals. Responses to the survey will be kept confidential. To participate, you must be an employee at a rural Michigan hospital. The survey should take about five minutes to complete.
