- Profile
-
I am currently Professor of Older People and Care in the School of Nursing and Midwifery at the University of ºù«Ӱҵ. Prior to this post I have had many years of experience conducting and applying research into healthcare. I have extensive academic, research, managerial and strategic experience gained from within both healthcare and University sectors. My clinical background is nursing and I have an interest in evidencing the value of nursing practice, as well as the impact of nursing on patients and wider society. I have a proven track record of delivering academic results including obtaining funding for, delivering, disseminating and applying a mixed portfolio of creative and high quality research of an International standard.
I have a legacy of research capacity building, working in and across settings and I am committed to developing evidence based healthcare practice.
- Research interests
-
My research has mainly focused on care for adults and older people. The particular research focus is in patient experience studies, especially in areas of public health, health inequalities and health care access. Recent work of international quality, with a clear narrative of impact, includes a growing portfolio of older people’s research, specifically lung cancer early diagnosis/treatment access, cold homes and health, intermediate care for older people, Parkinson’s, and neutropenic sepsis.
In addition, I have a current interest in patient experience of obesity and obesity related health services as well as evaluations of new clinical nursing roles and services.
Methodologically my expertise lies in qualitative research, in stand-alone and mixed method studies.
I currently jointly lead a 5 year Strategic Research Alliance between the RCN and School of Nursing and Midwifery.
I am the theme lead for the Translating Knowledge into Action Theme of the Collaboration for Leadership in Applied Health Research and Care (CLAHRC) Yorkshire and Humber.
