Profile

Liz is part of the Specialist Community Public Health Nurse team at Brunel and currently is pathway leader for the Occupational Health strand of the SCPHN course. One of the most rewarding aspects of working in Higher Education is seeing students develop professionally as competent practitioners and forging continuing links with practice. With a Masters degree in Higher Education there is also the opportunity to be actively involved in programmes of preparation for Practice Teachers.

She supports local professional groups and is a regular contributor to the OH journal. An ongoing ambition is to encourage students to publish their work.
