Getting Started

Think about how trust is involved in areas that you are working on. Here are a few examples:

  • staffing concerns
  • incivility
  • impact of AI
  • staff/leader relationships 
  • health equity & environmental justice
  • workplace violence
  • interdisciplinary collaboration
  • surrogate decision-making
  • effective communication
  • health care worker mental health
  • substance use disorder

Then review the categories below to see where it may fit. When you have a category and a topic, you can start by thinking of a title and then put together an abstract within the word limit. Generally, these are the main elements to consider as an outline for an abstract.

  1. Background (why it matters)
  2. Intervention (what you did)
  3. Implications/Objectives (what you set out to do)
  4. Results/Findings (what you learned)
  5. Conclusion/Impact (why it matters to others)
  6. For a Research Project, add:
    • Methods (how you did it)
    • Analysis (how you reviewed the results)

Take the outline and fill in your abstract. Review it, and then submit it.
