We run one of the largest early clinical trial units in Europe with over 300 trials every year. Cancer research in Manchester, most of which is undertaken on the Christie site, has been officially ranked the best in the UK.

You will have the training and support with clinical skills such as venepuncture, cannulation, accessing central lines, taking observations including manual blood pressures, monitoring blood glucose levels, performing ECGs and catheter care. You will also take initiative and ensure correct assessment of patient skin integrity and risk levels regarding falls, pressure damage etc and document and escalate accordingly. You will support the ward in maintaining cleanliness and stock. You will support patient’s hydration and nutrition needs and document using bedside charts. You will support patient flow by assisting the team in transferring of patients as needed and preparing bed spaces available for the next patient. There will be a range of clinical tests you will also support the team in collecting such as covid swab tests, MRSA swabs, lateral flow testing and collecting a range of specimens.
