About Me
I have over a decade of experience in health and social care, having begun my career in 2012 as a support worker for individuals with learning disabilities and autistic people. I went on to qualify as a Learning Disability Nurse in 2019, working within the NHS, then, in 2023, I qualified as a Specialist Community Public Health Nurse (Health Visitor), and I continue to practise within the NHS.
I am deeply committed to empowering and advocating for people, ensuring their voices are heard and their needs are met. I am passionate about creating an inclusive and compassionate world, where everyone has the support they need to thrive.
One of my particular areas of passion is alternative communication. A highlight of my career was receiving the Andrew Parker Student Nurse Award at the Royal College of Nursing Awards for developing a communication aid. Working in partnership with Makaton to create this inclusive tool was a significant achievement, helping to raise awareness of the needs of people who rely on alternative communication methods—something I remain immensely proud of.
I am Level 4 trained in Makaton, enabling me to effectively support and enhance communication and speech development for individuals who require alternative communication methods.
What is a Learning Disability Nurse?
A Learning Disability Nurse is a registered nurse who provides specialist health care and support to people with learning disabilities, as well as to their families and carers. They focus on promoting wellbeing, independence, and quality of life, while ensuring individuals are able to access the care and opportunities they deserve.
With a strong commitment to empowering individuals with learning disabilities to live fulfilling, independent lives, Learning Disability Nurses are dedicated to reducing health inequalities and improving access to healthcare services for people with learning disabilities. They are the only professionals specifically trained to support individuals with learning disabilities across the lifespan, equipping them with the specialist knowledge and skills required to support people with a learning disability.
It is a great privilege to work alongside people with learning disabilities and their families, building trusting relationships, understanding each person's unique strengths and needs, and advocating for compassionate, person-centred care. Learning Disability Nurses support both physical and emotional wellbeing, help reduce barriers to accessing services, and work collaboratively with families, carers, and other professionals to ensure holistic and meaningful support. Through advocacy, partnership working, and clinical expertise, they strive to ensure every individual is treated with dignity, respect, and compassion.
What is a Health Visitor?
A Health Visitor is a registered Specialist Community Public Health Nurse who supports families with babies and young children from pregnancy through the early years. The role focuses on promoting health, development, and wellbeing, while offering guidance, early support, and compassionate, person-centred care.
Health Visitors work alongside families to build confidence and resilience during pregnancy, infancy, and early childhood. They provide evidence-based advice on areas such as infant feeding, sleep, bonding and attachment, child development, emotional wellbeing, and parental mental health. They also play an important role in identifying concerns early, offering timely support, and connecting families with other services when needed.
It is a great honour to work alongside families during this important stage of life—building trusting relationships, recognising each family's strengths and needs, and helping children have the best possible start in life.
