THE SURVEY

How to participate:

The survey is available until July 30, 2006. How much time it takes you to complete the survey depends on whether you are a survivor, a family member, a caregiver or a professional, as each survey is different. However, we expect that most people will complete the survey within 45 minutes.

You may take the survey online or download a hard copy of the survey and return to BIANS via mail.

We will be visiting communities across Nova Scotia to meet with survivors, family members, caregivers and professionals to conduct focus groups so that we can discuss the issues with you. If you are interested in participating in a focus group, please contact Nancy at bianssurvey@gmail.com or (902) 473-5199.

Why you should participate:

By participating in this survey, you will have the opportunity to voice your concerns, opinions, views, and thoughts on issues facing all those who have been affected by a brain injury, whether you are a survivor, a family member, a caregiver or a professional.
