I currently teach across a range of programmes and modules including BSc Nursing, Physical Assessment and several Continuing Professional Development Programmes.
I am the Programme leader for the Dip HE (Assistant Practitioner) programme and I feel strongly that all staff working as Health Care Assistants should have development opportunities.
I am involved in delivering teaching to pre-registration and post registration nurses with a special interest in Drug Calculations. I also contribute to a range of bespoke training packages for NHS partners.
My main teaching interests include adult nursing, primary care and Diabetes.

My research interests are primarily focussed on how to best facilitate and develop the learning of Healthcare support staff in the practice setting with a view to widening participation and wider workforce development.
