The Scenario
USE THE FOLLOWING STUDY FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT: An Examination of Infants’ Microbiome, Nutrition, and Development Study. – Full Text View – ClinicalTrials.gov
Congratulations, your presentation at the team meeting went well, and you’ve been tasked to recruitment. As a new CRC, this is a common responsibility!
The new study is open at your institution, and a physician has contacted you because they have a patient who may be perfect for the study. The patient is scheduled to come in this week, and you will be meeting with them following their examination to explain the study. Your are tasked with making them aware of the study and to think about participation. A screening visit will be scheduled later, should they decide to participate.
Knowing you are new to this, you manager suggests you create and practice an “elevator pitch”
Create an elevator speech using the attached study
Address the following questions as an elevator speech for a CRC:
Start with who you are.
Write about what you want your audience to know (key pieces about the study, for example)
Explain the purpose or the goal of the study.
Edit what you’ve written. Erase sentences that are too long or unclear. Leave those that sound the way you speak.
Add a good conversation-starter at the beginning. An interesting fact about the issue, that grabs attention.
Make sure you stay within the 1-2 minute time frame, without talking too fast
Practice a lot. Ideally, with someone who knows you. Ask for feedback: do you sound natural? Is your elevator pitch conversational and free-flowing?
