Summary
I am an adult nurse by background, having worked in Critical Care and Community Nursing. I have worked in Healthcare Education since 2014 and have a special interest in simulation, leadership and service improvement. I am currently undertaking a Doctorate in Education.
About
I qualified as a nurse in 2003 and have experience in critical care and community nursing. I have undertaken the North Trent Critical Care Network Course. Since coming to SHU in 2014 I have undertaken an MSc in Healthcare Education. My dissertation focused on the impact of interprofessional education on patient care. I have experience in course leadership, interprofessional education and simulation.
I have previously worked as EDI lead, Student Experience lead and Business and Enterprise lead for Nursing and Midwifery, as well as the Simulation lead. I implemented Simulated Placements, which is now an integral part of the Nursing curriculum. I now lead of recruitment, outreach and marketing for Nursing, Midwifery and Social Work within the School of Health and Social Care. I am also currently undertaking a Doctorate in Education, with a focus on "student nurses' sense of belonging on clinical placement".
