Clinical Research Nurse I (Temporary) – Rollins School of Public Health

Emory University is a leading research university that fosters excellence and attracts world-class talent to innovate today and prepare leaders for the future. We welcome candidates who can contribute to the diversity and excellence of our academic community.

JOB DESCRIPTION:

• Provides clinical and administrative nursing support for research trials, studies, and projects.
• Recruits and screens potential participants.
• Performs patient/research subject evaluations, administers medications and research instruments and collects data.
• May assist with surgical procedures.
• Provides patient education related to study.
• Makes referrals to in-house or community professionals.

• May coordinate staffing or scheduling assignments.
• Performs related responsibilities as required.
• Employees in this classification may be required to work with, take specific precautions against and/or be immunized against potentially hazardous agents.

ADDITIONAL JOB DETAILS:

The responsibilities of the dually located Nurse Case Manager, working in both the jail and the community, will be to deliver strength-based case management services to enrolled participants.

He/She will also assist with the program coordination aspects of the project that do not touch on evaluation. We aim to hire a nurse in this role because a clinical background is important in planning for individuals’ access medications after jail. Currently, long-acting antiretroviral medications are not on the formularies of the AIDS Drug Assistance Program for Georgia and most health insurance companies. Paperwork for the manufacturer’s Patient Assistance Program requires supplying clinical details. In the future, the drug will likely require prior authorization paperwork. Prior authorizations typically require data from the medical history. Thus, the need for clinical expertise will likely continue into the future. He/She will devote 9.36 calendar months for the duration of the project.  
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:

• Licensed as a Registered Nurse in the state of Georgia and one year of related nursing experience.
• This position must be credentialed through Emory Healthcare under the RNII category.
