Because we believe in the maxim, "what cannot be measured cannot be improved," we provide these tools to assist centers with their continuous improvement goals.
Services in this area are tools designed for the leadership teams in the clinical trials offices of research centers. With these tools, they can evaluate the work their teams do and make informed decisions about resource allocation.
Available Metrics
Clinical trials office leadership of various OnCore centers participated in workshops at the semi-annual Onsemble conferences over the last 18 months to develop a set of metrics. These workshops are led by Kerry Bridges, MBA, RN,CCRC, of the Indiana University Simon Cancer Center and Henry Durivage, PharmD, of The Cancer Institute of New Jersey.
Results from this ongoing collaboration were selected for presentation at the ASCO Annual meeting in May, 2009. The poster and e-poster are available for download.
The sample charts included here represent annonymous aggregated data from participating OnCore centers. Soon, OnCore centers will be able to compare their own data to the aggregate averages.
