Here at Eastern Health, we have successfully been conducting clinical trial research for more than 30 years. Our clinical trials success could only have been achieved through the contribution of many trial volunteer participants, researchers, collaborators, and industry sponsors.
Eastern Health is committed to ensuring that the needs of all are met in an appropriate and respectful manner. As part of the Eastern Health promise – Healthier Together we are committed to involving people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds (CALD) in clinical research. The Melbourne Academic Centre for Health has produced educational videos that explain the role of clinical research. These videos available in 4 languages:
Clinical Trials and You – English
Clinical Trials and You – Italian
Clinical Trials and You – Mandarin
Clinical Trials and You – Vietnamese
Australian Clinical Trials is a government initiative that provides information and resources to participants about taking part in, and accessing clinical trials.
