Hannah McCall BSc RN PDTN PGC

Lecturer in Adult Nursing

Summary

I am a registered adult nurse, with a passion for teaching and workforce development. I joined Sheffield Hallam University as a nursing lecturer in 2022.

About

I bring a wide range of nursing and teaching experience to my role at Hallam, including positions within the NHS, the UK civil service, private healthcare, and international non-governmental organisations; and I currently keep my clinical skills up-to-date by working as an event medic at sports and music events.
 
Within health and wellbeing, I have a specific interest in public health and outbreak control.

Lecturer

Teaching

Department of Nursing and Midwifery

College of Health, Wellbeing and Life Sciences

I contribute to the delivery of our pre-registration nursing courses, in addition to CPD courses, specialist modules, and post-graduate programmes. I have a specific interest in public health, infectious disease and outbreak control.
 
I also undertake academic adviser responsibilities, supporting students to develop excellent study skills, and to relate classroom work to practical skills experiences during clinical placement.

Research

I am committed to continuous service improvement through audit and research. I have had work published in the Nursing Standard and British Medical Journal, as well as presented posters at conference.
 
My research has predominantly focused on the impact and use of digital technologies in public health, and infectious disease within sexual health.
