Achieving more together
Study Nurse Network
The demands placed on study nurses in ECTUs (Early Clinical Trial Units) are increasing all the time, as phase I and II trials in particular are becoming ever more complex, diverse and challenging. In order to meet these requirements and to support each other, a study nurse network of ETCUs was founded within the BZKF in February 2021.
Study nurses and study coordinators from the ECTUs meet at regular intervals to exchange ideas, observe and learn from each other's work. The network has now grown to 40 members.
A small group of seven participants from each location meet every two weeks and create documents and forms as part of the forms portal in order to pool knowledge and facilitate the work of the study nurses with the help of checklists and SOPs.
The network is supported by the Mentoring Nurse, who is an overarching point of contact for everyone for questions that arise in everyday life and to support the work of the forms portal with knowledge and experience.
