* Ideally have some hands-on patient care experience in a hospital setting, in a fast-paced ward (i.e. A&E, ICU, etc.)

A CAREER IN CLINICAL RESEARCH: FROM THE WARD TO THE WORLD
As part of the Fortrea team, you will work with leading pharmaceutical and biotech companies at a vital stage of clinical development: determining the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of new drugs.
Your nursing skills will be crucial in ensuring the care and monitoring of participants during clinical trials and upholding the ethical conduct of the study. You will:
* Maintain a close, face-to-face relationship with participants, while growing your clinical skills.
* Engage with cutting-edge medical technologies and witness the development of life-saving treatments firsthand.
ON A NORMAL DAY, YOU WILL...
Learn. And grow. No two days will be the same; and this is because you will be exposed to a wide variety of Therapeutic Indications and study designs (ascending dose, first-in-human, food effect, drug to drug interactions, etc.) And regardless of your projects, every day you will:
* Provide high-quality nursing diagnosis and care, and use your clinical judgment to respond to emergencies.
* Based on your nursing assessment skills, observe participant well-being. Act upon and document adverse events.
* Obtain Informed Consent and educate participants about study procedures.
* Administer investigational compounds, including parenteral medications.
* Perform study related procedures such as cannulation, telemetry, holters, vital signs, ECGs, venipuncture and more.

* Recording data promptly and accurately into electronic systems and Case Report Forms.
