It highlights the role of research nurses in patient pre-screening and the importance of person-centred approaches that accommodate individual communication barriers, as advocated by the National Institute for Health and Care Research’s (NIHR) 2021 "leave no one behind" policy. The article calls for proactive measures such as health needs assessments, tailored linguistic support, adequate workforce funding, and community engagement to address marginalization and improve inclusivity in clinical research. It emphasizes that patients should be viewed as central to research rather than merely fitting trial protocols. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
