PSI FAQs: How do PSI CRAs support clinical site relationships?
At PSI, your last patient in is our first priority. Keeping this goal in mind is only possible with dedicated Clinical Research Associates (CRAs) that support your trial from end to end. This stability not only streamlines communication and transparency with your team but also with the sites who are critical to the success of your trial.
Each site on your study will have a single point of contact with one of our highly qualified CRAs, who serves as a site manager. This CRA’s responsibilities include:
• Ensuring sites are up to date and have all the essential documents
• Maintaining a deep working knowledge of the latest protocol version
• Confirming standards of care and investigator interest
• Ensuring a streamlined process of reporting
• Liaising with investigators and clinical research personnel
• Responding to site questions and providing regular remote follow-up in between visits
With experience working with 4,000 sites worldwide, we recognize that building relationships with investigators and site teams takes time. To ensure the success of each site relationship, our CRAs receive extensive project-specific and soft skills training. This difference between managing site relationships and simply monitoring sites can have a direct impact on the success of your current trial as well as a site’s willingness to work with a sponsor or CRO again in the future.
At PSI, we recognize that every patient counts. That’s why our CRAs go the extra mile to ensure our sites receive the support they need so that your study enrolls on time. Contact us today to learn more.
“I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for working so diligently for this patient. I know it was a lot of hard work by everyone but if you could have seen the patient’s face when I told her our site was activated it was worth it.”
