Research
The Lakeside Healthcare Research and Innovation Unit has been set up to provide all our patients with the opportunity to take part in clinical research studies which are relevant to them.
What We Do
Lakeside has its own Research team which conducts clinical trials on behalf of research organisations and pharmaceutical sponsors.
Each trial is different and there are many opportunities for patients to get involved. Depending on the trial we get in touch directly with those who fit the eligibility criteria and invite them take part.
They are given full details of the trial, process involved and what is expected of them and they are monitored throughout by our clinical team. Some people get involved as they want to help medical research or are happy to take part in trials as it could positively improve their health and help to develop treatment for chronic illnesses.
The reasons to get involved in clinical research vary according to patients and trials, but we welcome enquiries from any Lakeside patient who may wish to volunteer. Depending on the trial there may be some remuneration for participants but more details of this can be shared during the selection process.
