Works 4 days per week at RPC South
I qualified August 1994 after completing my training at Chesterfield and North Derbyshire School of nursing. (CNDSN) On completing my training my first post was as a staff nurse in accident and emergency at Queens Medical Centre Nottingham (QMC) where I undertook the University of Nottingham trauma course.
I subsequently worked on ICU at QMC and was the transplant co-ordinator for the unit. I worked at the Stapleford Walk in Centre/Lift site as senior nurse to set up and manage a new service. In this post I was also the named nurse for child protection.
I then under took a role setting up a Walk in centre in Kirkby in Ashfield, again working as the named nurse for child protection. Then transferring and setting up this service at Kingsmill Hospital as Primary Care 24 (PC24) an integrated Primary Care Centre within the Accident and Emergency, undertaking training with the Safeguarding leadership Academy and working as the named nurse for child protection.
I then took a post as a nurse practitioner with Derbyshire health United predominantly working on the pilot for the streaming /primary care service at CNDRH as well as covering multiple sites across north Derbyshire, before joining what was Blue Dykes Surgery in 2014 as an Advanced Nurse Practitioner with special interest in muscular skeletal and trauma, currently safeguarding lead for both adults and children across the two sites.
