She enjoys neuroscience nursing because it is both demanding and rewarding, enabling nurses to provide care for patients with a multitude of physical, behavioural, cognitive and emotional needs. She loves the fact that every single day presents new challenges and new learning opportunities. As an educator she works clinically to support nurses on the unit and teach the post-registered course in neuroscience nursing. She has been given the opportunity to represent and work as advocate to promote the interests of neuroscience nurses across the U.K. More recently she has become involved with third sector charities and increased her understanding of the long-term consequences of surviving a brain injury.
