Exciting research HCA Jobs in Livingston, Edinburgh with Hays!

Phase 1 clinical research studies/trials
An interesting and exciting opportunity for high calibre health care assistants

Hays Healthcare have an urgent requirement for their client, the foremost and largest clinical research organisation in the World for positions available asap in clinical trials.

This is a rare opportunity for Healthcare Assistants to get involved in clinical research, but only HCA's with the specific skills listed below should apply.

Our client would like to engage with HCA's that would be keen in working in a busy, fast paced and vibrant atmosphere participating in delivering phase 1 clinical research studies. The work is pain staking and demanding and requires HCA's that have specific training and skills. HCA's with some research experience and trained in good clinical practice are preferred. However, without this, HCA's that have specific skills and experience in ECG function and monitoring, bloods via cannulation and venepuncture, immediate life support training, vital signs training and experience, blood pressure monitoring etc are mandatory.

HCA's are required on a temporary basis with a rotating weekly shift pattern . There are a variety of shifts to the pattern, including earlies, lates and night shifts, each week.

The HCA's will be welcomed as a research technician into an existing team of other nurses and support staff; so good team players are a must.

Working in this very busy clinical trial unit, the HCA's need to demonstrate good people and communication skills, be used to using multiple monitoring and recording apparatus on multiple patients and need to have a good 'can-do' work ethic. An initial induction and training course will be delivered to the HCA in the first week.

If you meet the criteria and are excited in knowing more about this challenge, and, can be available for these dates, please submit your updated current CV to the Hays expert dealing with these vacancies.
