Chief Nurse to take up new leadership role at Coventry University

I am delighted to accept this role and I very much see it as an opportunity to build on the multi-professional education and training agenda that I’ve been proud to lead at HEE, including dementia training standards, apprenticeship routes and the new Nursing Associate role.

I have always done my utmost to champion the professions of nursing and midwifery and raise their status and profile, whether in education, training or practice.

So I’m looking forward to this new challenge, where I’ll be continuing my efforts to develop and widen access through new routes and growing the Nursing Associate role. Having seen for myself the excellent and innovative approaches to teaching and learning at Coventry University, which led to its recent well-deserved gold rating in the Teaching Excellence Framework, I’m confident that it can play a key role in taking this important work forward.
