As a research nurse, you will be involved in the collection of biological samples, and trial specific data collection, and you will be expected to administer experimental agents and monitor patients for side effects, reporting these as appropriate. This is an excellent opportunity for a highly motivated paediatric nurse with Cancer care experience. You must have effective organisational skills and be looking for a new and exciting challenge.
