Research
I'm studying a PhD at the School of Healthcare Sciences, investigating the effects of working practice on Diagnostic Radiographers.
I'm interested in researching Radiographer and AHP resilience, shift work & error, and workforce optimisation. This includes a wider study of the Diagnostic Radiographer - from the perspective of other healthcare professionals, patients and the general public.
I'm also passionate about Learning Technology in Diagnostic Radiography; Nuclear Medicine.
Teaching
Diagnostic Radiography lecturer, teaching on a wide range of general and specialist radiography topics, including:
- General Radiography,
- Cardiovascular Imaging,
- Nuclear Medicine,
- Quality Assurance,
- Informatics and Learning Technology,
- Professional Practice.
Clinical Lectureship role currently involves direct support, supervision and assessment of Diagnostic Radiography students in clinical practice.
Biography
Former Radiographer & Senior Radiographer in NHS Wales 2005-2016 - rotating through general radiography, fluoroscopy, theatre, mobiles, cardiology/interventional & Nuclear Medicine (particularly Nuclear Cardiology).
A clinical mentor's role within my Local Health Board (and subsequent Practice Education accreditation with the Society and College of Radiographers) led to a Clinical Tutor secondment with Cardiff University in Spring 2015, overseeing clinical education in what is now Swansea Bay University Health Board. A full time dual role (Academic & Clinical Lecturer) with Cardiff University began in Autumn 2016, leading to completion of MSc(D) in Radiography at Cardiff. I also successfully completed work to register a Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy. I commenced my PhD research with the School of Healthcare Sciences in January 2022.
I am involved in technology and simulation in Diagnostic Radiography, including implementation of Shaderware (simulation software) and MyProgress (clinical portfolio). I teach on a variety of modules within both undergraduate and postgraduate programmes.
