What we will clarify during feasibility

Population fit

Inclusion and exclusion criteria, expected participant volume, referral sources, and realistic recruitment channels.

Protocol demands

Visit schedule, assessments, staffing, documentation, privacy, training, equipment, and study-specific workflows.

Participant experience

Outreach language, consent expectations, accessibility, transportation realities, communication preferences, and retention support.

Compliance pathway

IRB coordination, contracts, privacy obligations, secure data handling, sponsor requirements, and staff training needs.


Sponsor Trust

Quality signals without overclaiming site maturity.

City Health is preparing for responsible research partnerships by being explicit about fit, privacy, informed choice, and startup discipline before study activity begins.

Feasibility before volume

City Health evaluates fit, operational burden, participant realities, and privacy requirements before accepting study startup work.

Clear participant boundaries

Research interest is not enrollment. Study participation requires protocol-specific screening, review, consent, and documented choice.

Confidentiality discipline

Sponsor and protocol materials should move through an agreed secure exchange path rather than ordinary intake notes or public website forms.

Care-aware communication

Outreach should be understandable, respectful, and aligned with behavioral health sensitivity, without pressure or therapeutic overstatement.


Feasibility conversation flow

Early conversations should clarify fit before either side invests heavily in startup work.
