About me
Dr Laura Goodwin is an Associate Professor in Emergency Care, based within the Emergency Care Theme of UWE Bristol’s Centre for Health and Clinical Research (CHCR).
Laura works on a variety of projects in urgent and emergency care, including pre-hospital maternity, perinatal and newborn care, paramedic involvement in end of life care, redirection and streaming in the emergency department, dementia, and airway management in cardiac arrest. She also has a background in nursing and maternity research, including research into inequalities in pregnancy outcomes, waterbirth, and nursing and midwifery workforce.
Laura has specific expertise in qualitative research, but many of her projects take a mixed methods approach. She is especially interested in pre-hospital maternity care, where most of her recent work focuses. Laura is also interested in patient safety, workforce design, and inequalities in health outcomes. She has recently led work into the temperature measurement and management of babies born in the prehospital setting, funded by Health Innovation South West. Laura’s work aims to improve outcomes for babies born unexpectedly outside of hospital, and has had both national and international impact.
