The RN will ensure the integrity of research data while maintaining care that is safe, efficient, timely, effective, equitable, compassionate and patient-centered. Job Responsibilities: Care requirements will be determined by the scope of study participation, the clinical condition of the participant and the requirements and clinical effects of research procedures. Duties will include but are not limited to: providing direct, individualized care to both adult and pediatric research participants who are participating in research protocols, phlebotomy and IV insertion, preparing and administering investigational medications, monitoring and observation, performing ECG's, collecting and processing specimens, other data collection, providing direction and health teaching where applicable in relation to study protocol activities, reporting and recording care rendered, reporting the participant's response to that care, charge nurse duties and contributing to the CTRC's continuous quality improvement program including the training of non-licensed research personnel.
