An alumnus of GCU graduating in 2010 as a Mental Health Nurse; I went on to work in various clinical settings across NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (South Area) and NHS Ayrshire and Arran. I have experience working within Adult Inpatient and Community settings, Older Adult Inpatient and Community settings and Liaison Psychiatry in Acute Hospitals.
Before joining GCU as a Lecturer in Mental Health Nursing in November 2022, I worked as a Nurse Team Leader in an Older Adult CMHT.
I am currently working on completing an MSc in Mental Health Practice (Education Pathway) and writing my dissertation on the topic of Nurse Competence in Working with Deaf or Hearing-Impaired Patients in Mental Health Inpatient Settings, due for submission in November 2023.
