Brentwood
Research Institute (BRI) is a full-time, dedicated, psychiatric,
clinical research facility located in Shreveport,
Louisiana. BRI’s medical facility is uniquely designed to suit
the special needs of clinical research.
We are connected and
affiliated with Brentwood, A Behavioral Health Company, which is a
200-bed psychiatric hospital.
The hospital provides quality
psychiatric and addictive disease treatment for children,
adolescents, and adults in North Louisiana, Arkansas, and East
Texas. Our unique relationship offers us the ability to control
the quality of our research programs at all times.
Our Commitment to Quality
In order to ensure high quality service, Brentwood Research Institute
conducts its clinical trials in accordance with FDA regulations,
Good Clinical Practices, and sponsor protocols. Our medical group
is staffed with highly trained professionals who work closely with
pharmaceutical companies and Institutional Review Boards to ensure
study compliance and collection of reliable data while maintaining
our commitment to the safety of our patients as well as their individual
rights.
Our staff takes time to thoroughly assess each individual patient
by obtaining a detailed medical and psychiatric history. Additionally,
we perform a detailed review of all aspects of a clinical trial
protocol with each potential study participant. This is necessary
in order to ensure complete understanding. By taking the time
to determine and understand an individual’s diagnosis,
and by evaluating and explaining the clinical trial protocol,
we assure a good match between potential patient and study protocol.
When an individual enrolls in a trial at Brentwood Research
Institute, they can be assured that our professional staff members
will be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to address
any study related issues that may arise.
