Health Care Worker Exposure Response & Outcomes (HERO) Registry

Participate in a Health Care Worker Exposure Response & Outcomes (HERO) Registry Study

Because you know what it takes to be a HERO.

The Health Care Worker Exposure Response & Outcomes (HERO) Registry is a large, national clinical research community. It invites health care workers including nurses, therapists, physicians, emergency responders, food service workers, environmental service workers, interpreters, transporters -- anyone who works in a setting where people receive health care, across America to share clinical and life experiences to understand the perspectives and problems they face on the COVID-19 pandemic front lines.

HERO Registry participants could have the opportunity to participate in future research studies to improve our understanding of COVID-19 and beyond, generating evidence to help keep healthcare workers safe and healthy.
