Abstract

The chief nursing officer for England's strategic plan for research identified the important contribution that nurses and midwives make to research, and how this group can be developed in the future. The value of the contribution of clinical research and the specialist staff that deliver research studies was also further demonstrated throughout the Covid-19 pandemic. This article describes the creation and pilot of a new national career development opportunity for research nurses and midwives who wish to develop as leads for delivering research studies at site.
