NURSING OBSERVATORY

Send a lead without giving your name.

Send CNO a lead, a public source, a correction, or a request to look at a hospital. Do not include your name, contact details, workplace role, or other information that identifies you.

A tip is a lead, not a finding.

CNO checks tips against other evidence before publishing a finding.

Describe the issue and any public source.

Do not submit patient-identifying information, confidential medical records, private personnel information, or any other unnecessary identifying information.

What this form stores: the fields below, retained for up to one year. CNO’s application does not store IP address, user agent, referrer, cookies, or session ID with a submission. Hosting-provider request logs may exist outside CNO’s application controls; CNO does not represent this as technical anonymity from every provider.
