The Rhode Island Department of Health (HEALTH) Beach Program is coordinating a water use survey for the calendar year of 2011. We are looking for year round water users to participate (surfers, swimmers, etc.) We are looking for individuals who are generally in the water at least once a month, year round.
Participation is completely voluntary. The survey consists of a short 3-5 minute survey following each water exposure. If an illness is observed there will be an additional short 3-5 minute survey. The survey may be completed online, in writing, or over the phone. The information gathered in this study will help HEALTH to better understand state wide year round water use and associated health risks.
We will be signing up participants in January 2011. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or are interested in participating.
Thank you,
