Introduction

I qualified in 1989 as a registered nurse and have extensive experience in the delivery of safe, effective, high quality patient care across a range of healthcare sectors. I initially worked as a staff nurse on an orthopaedic trauma ward before specialising in Accident and Emergency nursing. Since 2002, after more than 10 years as a senior nursing sister and Emergency Nurse Practitioner, I have worked in NHS management and clinical service development. My management experience is in both acute and community services and across a range of NHS services, including prison healthcare.

I now work as an interim clinical manager, specialising in clinical governance, risk management or operational management. Recent assignments include Lead Nurse for a GP federation and Quality Assurance Officer for a digital healthcare company. I am currently working as a clinical operations manager for a Covid vaccination centre and as a part time nurse educator. My clinical role remains important and I regularly work as a Locum Emergency Nurse Practitioner within an NHS Walk-in Centre.

I am motivated by challenge and can perform well under pressure, either as part of a team or on my own initiative. I am a good communicator, and listener, and can interrogate complex information to produce high level discussion or written reports.

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 the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) pertaining to Expert Witnesses.
