Sister, coronary care and Ward 10 at The Northumbria hospital
My team is what I love most about working at Northumbria. I’ve always loved being part of a team. Ward 10 is a fantastic place to work. Given the challenges we face, it’s really important we all pull together and help each other out.
I have been able to do my mentorship qualification in 2007 and recently completed my degree. My manager supported me throughout my degree and study time was granted – some students on my course were there in their own time.
I enjoy the teaching and educational aspect of my role. Myself and my manager, Julie Appleby, are currently in the process of developing a structured training programme within cardiology to support and train staff members.
