Chiltern International Ltd. Introduces a New Solution to Help Its Clients Boost Enrollment

CARLSBAD, Calif., April 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Chiltern International, a leading global Clinical Research Organization, announced the expansion of the services it offers clients through its Resourcing Solutions division with the introduction of a specialist group dedicated at providing experienced Study Site Coordinators direct to investigators and hospital sites. The new option will be introduced during the 31st ACRP Global Conference and Exhibition in Seattle, Washington, April 20 - 24.

"With an ever increasing number of clinical trials, it has become more and more difficult for Investigator sites to recruit highly qualified clinical research personnel." Cathy Gooch, Associate Director, Resourcing Solutions commented, "The lack of available clinical research or Study Site Coordinators at the sites can severely hinder the recruitment of patients into clinical trials."

"Chiltern's Resourcing Solutions division offers flexible solutions tailored to the site's specific recruitment needs. We identify the candidates through a rigorous screening process," Cathy added, "and present only the most qualified candidates for consideration. Sites may choose to utilize these staff on an hourly paid or permanent basis, according to their needs at that time."

Linda Christmas, Global Head, Resourcing Solutions for Chiltern said, "It had become very apparent that Investigator sites needed greater flexibility in order to manage personnel fluctuations and meet their recruitment goals, most specifically during the enrollment phase of clinical studies. Our new resourcing solution does provide the sites with an answer."
