Guest Bio
After completing her BSc in Nursing and qualifying as a registered nurse, Chiara Dall’Ora was awarded a MSc in Nursing and Midwifery by the Università degli Studi di Milano Bicocca (Italy). She then decided to pursue her research interests by enrolling in the PhD program at the University of Southampton.
Here she currently holds a position of visiting researcher for the NIHR CLAHRC Wessex, where she collaborates daily with a team of national experts in workforce organisation.
Dall’Ora's current research interest focuses on the organization of the nursing workforce, particularly on shift work, and its implications for patient and nurse outcomes, such as delivered quality of care, patient safety, missed nursing care, nurses' intention to leave, nurse job satisfaction and burnout.
Dall’Ora has extensive knowledge of shift work, both with her experience as a registered nurse, and for the research that she has carried out since 2013. Dall’Ora analyzed data from a large European study, the RN4CAST study, to explore the relationship between nurse working hours and measures of care, quality/safety outcomes, and nurse outcomes. The results of this study have been published in international journals. - Length (mins) 10
