Here’s What Medical Trials Are Really Like

We’ve seen medical trials in TV shows and comedy skits, but it’s so different IRL.

This article is presented in partnership with Nucleus Network.

When you think about medical trials, what comes to mind?

Are you imagining being stuck in a room in a hospital gown, with no phone and dying of boredom while you get tested all day?

That’s far from what medical trials are like in reality.

You have so much more freedom than you think, and it’s actually the perfect way to get some quality you time!

Nucleus Network offers a variety of studies at their clinics to help advance medicine in order to help improve lives of millions of people.

So what is it like to participate in one of their medical trials?

The most important question we’ll answer first – yes, there is free Wi-Fi available at their clinics.

Nucleus Network clinics have a strong Wi-Fi connection throughout their units, so get settled in!

Is your trial running during study week? You can defs bring your laptop too – the clinic is going to make for a great getaway spot to focus.

Don’t worry about your screen-time being interrupted with tests – most procedures get done in the morning. Once it’s over, you’re back to relaxing!

Nucleus Network says that your days will be dependent on the study schedule, but most days you’ll get 90% free time, 10% study procedures.

BTW, you won’t be needing to wear a hospital gown or anything like that.

Bring your own clothes you feel comfy in, and bring some short sleeved shirts so it’s easy to get your procedure done.

You won't be confined to your bed, so feel free to walk around inside the unit if you want to stretch your legs.

If you’re feeling a little social, Nucleus Network has a rec room for you to hang out with other participants.
