About me
I graduated with a BSc (Hons) in Psychology and went on to complete a PhD on the neuropsychology of dementia. I spent the next eight years researching ways to improve the recognition and management of dementia, before becoming Research Fellow in Emergency Care at UWE. I now work on a variety of projects involving out of hospital cardiac arrest, cervical spine immobilisation following traumatic injury and reducing avoidable hospital admissions.
Area of expertise
I am interested in all areas of pre-hospital research and particularly enjoy the challenges associated with emergency care. I am interested in finding solutions to the ethical and practical research obstacles that arise. My recent emergency care research relates to my earlier interests in psychology and dementia and I am currently researching ways to improve assessment, recognition and management of the condition by emergency care staff.
