Biography
As a University Practice Learning Adviser at Bournemouth University, I am responsible for the quality assurance of placement areas and supporting both students and assessors in the practice setting, whilst working in close collaboration with education teams in local organisations and trusts. In 2012, I qualified as a paramedic and continue to work for a local trust, which allows me to combine both education and clinical practice.
I hold a Masters in Education in Practice as well as a Masters in Critical Care. My research areas of interest include critical care, practice education and regulatory standards. I am currently a PhD student looking at the process for managing concerns relating to healthcare student's fitness to practice.
