Are you a Victorian nurse or midwife interested in sharing your insights on drinking cultures within your professional community? Researchers from La Trobe University and Monash University want to hear from you!

Researchers are conducting an online survey to explore the unique dynamics of drinking cultures among nurses. Drinking together (e.g. after work or at work events) can be an important part of nurses’ and midwives’ occupational activities, offering opportunities to socialise, relax, debrief or network.

Your experiences and perspectives on drinking with colleagues are valuable in understanding the nature, meaning and purposes of drinking alcohol together within your occupation group.

Participation in this survey is voluntary and anonymous. You will not be identified.

You are eligible if you:
✔️are employed as a nurse or a midwife
✔️live in Victoria
✔️ are 18 years or older.

This research is funded by the Australian Research Council and the Victorian Health Promotion Foundation (VicHealth) and has received ethics approval [HEC24170].
