The Expertise Required
  • Clinical Expertise: Proficiency in venipuncture and specimen handling best practices, with strong attention to labeling, documentation, and chain-of-custody integrity. 
  • Participant Care: Clear, compassionate communication skills and professionalism when engaging with participants and community partners. 
  • Tech Readiness: Comfort using mobile apps and e-source tools for real-time logging and documentation. 
  • Dependability & Adaptability: Reliable, punctual, and team-oriented - able to thrive in dynamic event environments and work independently under event-day guidance. 
  • Mission Mindset (optional addition): Motivated by bringing clinical research to local communities and expanding access to the future of medicine. 
Certifications/Licenses, Education, and Experience
  • Minimum Education:
    • Active, unrestricted RN license in the state of practice.
    • Active and unrestricted State Board of Nursing license in good standing 
  • Minimum Experience:
    • 1 year performing phlebotomy and specimen handling activities.  
How We Work Together
