Illingworth Research Group offers specialist Mobile Research Nurses for additional clinical trial support in the home or at site. Our research nursing service is offered internationally in over 45 countries.
We conduct clinical trial visits for patients at home, school or place of work, offering a truly convenient way for patients to participate in clinical trials. Bringing the clinic to the patient builds an optimum relationship with study subjects, alleviating stress and improving overall patient experience in studies, particularly where enrolment is typically an issue, for example in rare disease studies.
Aside from the benefits to the patient there are also great sponsor benefits. This service generally enhances recruitment rates as patients need to visit the site less regularly.
Enables those less mobile or who live in remote locations to participate
Improves retention rates as patients build an open relationship with their visiting nurse
Compliance is respected and maintained throughout the study
Provides extra support for patients and their families
Enables the drug to potentially reach the marketplace more quickly.
Our research nurses work at clinical sites as well as away from site, in various supporting roles to the Principal Investigator, or in patient identification, study procedures and data collection.
Our research nurses are accustomed to fitting within existing team structures to provide extra resources and driving the project forward at sites without an existing research infrastructure in place.
This service has proved beneficial in instances where mobile research nursing may not be achievable or appropriate, or for sites and patients who do not wish to take up off-site research nursing.
Illingworth Research Group recruits nurses with or without a background within clinical research, meaning we are often able to offer a nurse with experiences within a Sponsors' indication.
All of our nurses are subject to comprehensive pre-engagement checks, hold GCP certification and will adhere to Illingworth’s SOP’s and policies and undertake appropriate study training. This means our nurses are well prepared for any study they are invited to work on – both on and off-site.
Our Expert Research Nurses use IRG’s dedicated Patient Concierge Services to ensure every patient and site receive a tailored solution to support their experience during a clinical trial.
Supported by our multi-language PatientGO® smart app, patients or caregivers can request, view and keep track of travel for their study appointments, as well as claim any out-of-pocket expenses arising from their visits.
Our team of travel and logistics experts liaise with patients or caregivers, either via the PatientGO® app or traditional means to provide a streamlined, holistic service tailored to patients' needs.
The SourceGO® app is designed to keep patient's data safe and enable the delivery of Mobile Research Nurse visits.
