With dedicated professionals directing
research in three key programs, our objectives at the Centre
for Nursing Research include:
The conducting of high-quality research that informs
nursing practice and influences policy development.
The fostering of a collaborative model of research that
provides leadership opportunities and expertise for nursing
staff.
The encouragement of nurses to develop research proposals,
conduct research in teams and disseminate research findings
The development of interdisciplinary local, national and
international research collaborations
CNR
also provides a mentoring framework that supports nurses
in their quest for knowledge and skills advancement, and
aims to integrate proven research into clinical practice.
By involving nurses in research programs, Charlies
provides ongoing education and skills enhancement for staff,
quality management of hospital procedures, support, team
building and professional development.
