POSITION SUMMARY:

The stroke research nurse role is an opportunity to join a dynamic team of stroke clinicians focused on growing and developing The Alfred stroke service.

The primary responsibility of the Stroke Research Nurse is to co-ordinate and facilitate various clinical stroke research trials being conducted by the Alfred stroke team (including Alfred Human Research Ethics Committee or HREC applications). The Research Nurse will do this by ensuring optimal patient assessment, recruitment and retention as well as excellent data collection and management in accordance with Good Clinical Research Practice Standards and adherence to clinical trial protocols. The Stroke Research Nurse is responsible for the recruitment, scheduling, assessment and monitoring of participants enrolled in internationally sponsored clinical trials, at the same time using a range of administration, research, and educational skills to ensure best practice in the management of these trials.
