Deputy Head of Department Nursing and Midwifery, Postgraduate, Research and Knowledge Transfer Lead
As Deputy Head of Department I am responsible for working collaboratively to develop and deliver the college vision and strategy in ensuring an excellent student experience. I support the Head of Nursing and Midwifery to ensure our postgraduate provision is of the highest standard.
Working closely with commissioners and practice partners ensures we develop and deliver a postgraduate/post-registration and Continuing Professional Development portfolio that meets the needs of patients, service users and service providers. I am also responsible for leading on our research and knowledge transfer agenda including preparing for the Research Excellence Framework (2020); enhancing our research-informed teaching and working with partners to engage in service innovations and scholarly activity. I also lead on developing our growing international and UK business portfolios. I teach to a range of undergraduate and postgraduate students in the areas of mental health nursing including anxiety disorders, depression and early attachment. I also teach research methods and techniques.
