Senior Lecturer – MSc Advanced Clinical Practitioner
I am a Senior Lecturer with the MSc Advanced Clinical Practitioner apprentice team in the Faculty of Health and Wellbeing.
I am a registered member of the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and hold qualifications in adult nursing and non-medical prescribing.
I have worked in a variety of clinical settings with the majority of my roles being in addictions and hepatology. Before joining the University of Sunderland in 2022, I worked as a team manager, non-medical prescriber, and clinical lead in a large multi-agency addictions service with a high level of responsibility and leadership in a complex healthcare environment.
Teaching and supervision
I teach MSc Advanced Clinical Practitioner Apprenticeship supporting our apprentice advanced clinical practitioners to develop the knowledge, skills, and behaviours commensurate with advanced clinical practice. I lead modules in:
- Advanced Clinical Management of Chronic Disease
- Advanced Adult Clinical Management Skills
- Advanced Medicines Management for Advanced Clinical Practice
I co-host a podcast with my colleague, The Shop Floor. The podcast explores topics related to the development of trainee ACPs and advanced clinical practice in general.
