Placement Expansion Lead / General Practice Nurse Educator (GPNE)
My primary role within BNSSG Training Hub is Placement Expansion Lead. I aim to increase student nurse placements in general practice, exposing students to primary care and showcasing it as a desirable career choice. I am also a General Practice Nurse Educator, leading the Newly Qualified Nurse Fellowship, New to Practice programmes, and being an advocate for the Return to Practice programme.
I am a general practice nurse by background and also undertake additional ad hoc roles, including university lecturer and nurse educator. I am passionate about the future of general practice and access to education for all. In 2020, I was awarded the title of Queen’s Nurse.
Outside of work, I am a busy mum to three boys and a Labrador. I enjoy holidays in warmer climates and days out with my family​.
