Tamara's+research+interests

Previous research experience as researcher, subject, etc
I have not had the chance to be a researcher although I have had a chance to participate in a research study. I found it very interesting, as I was observing nursing staff in lakeridge health; the study was on the nursing shortage and the increase of work load. I used new technology to record data efficiently and quickly. I found that a lot of nursing staff do not take proper precautions when providing care as they are rushed and often are trying to do two things at once. I also found that the staff were un easy with a spectator following them around and recording, I feel this could have been a result of mistakes. I have filled out plenty of forms and tick sheets for a variety of researches being held such as, experience as a student nurse, preferred foods and favorite colours. I enjoy helping a study and would love to research into different topics.

Research that I would do with unlimited money and resources
With unlimited money and resources the sky is the limit. I would research everything and anything that came to mind even if other people thought it was stupid, such as the average time one chews bubble gum, and the odds of a nurse marrying an engineer.

More realistic current research interest(s)
Realistically I’d like to research eating disorders, is it pure mental illness? How media specifically affects younger teens, and a closer look on the direct onset of how one attains an eating disorder. I also find the topic of burnout for nursing staff very in trigging, being a nurse myself I find some days worse than others and I see why there is a high rate of burnout, and I know there are precautions to take to prevent burnout but there is so much more that can be done.
