Registered Nurse with 20 years’ experience as Registered Manager of a 79 bed nursing home and over 40 years of medical experience. I am highly driven, innovative, and work well in demanding situations. I am an excellent communicator and have long-standing collaborative relationships with my colleagues, team and wider healthcare professionals. I lead from the front, and first and foremost consider myself a nurse and an advocate of person-centred care. My core aim is to ensure that those I care for retain their dignity and receive the greatest level of respect in a safe and compassionate manner. Always looking for new challenges and ways to improve working practices.
