Introduction

In my current role I work with a wide range of clinical conditions, particularly specialising in the assessment and provision of equipment and major adaptations that are tailored to each client's individual requirements. This optimises their functional ability within their environment. Assistive technology is also used to support clients to remain in their own homes. I utilise my knowledge of wheelchairs and postural management to maximise their comfort and function. 

My skill set includes, but is not limited to: Moving and handling; home adaptations; orthopaedic conditions, spinal injuries, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, and Orthopaedic lower limb injuries.

I have experience of working in both community and in-patient settings which has provided me with a breadth of clinical knowledge. 

I am committed to remaining up to date and thrive on continuing my professional development, I am always looking at improving my skill set. I am a member of the National Back Exchange, and a member of the National Disabled Facilities Grant forum, I also actively seek out ways to immerse myself in any development opportunities in the organisation for which I work.

I accept instructions from both claimant and defendant solicitors and insurers. I have undergone formal training in the medico-legal process and am fully aware of my responsibilities under Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) pertaining to expert witnesses.
