Profile

As college nurse, I work as a link between the College and the college GP surgery and doctors. I am able to deal with minor illness, injuries (sports or otherwise), sexual health, stress and other wellbeing matters. I am available for a wide range of confidential discussions relating to all aspects of health and wellbeing; if I cannot help, I will find someone who can. 

I have been working as a Registered Mental Health Nurse since 1999; I worked in London caring for adults, first in hospital, and later as a Community Mental Health Nurse. I moved into Public Health Nursing while living through the SARs Pandemic in 2003, and studied Public Health Nursing at Hong Kong University.

Appointments with the college nurse can be booked online.
