- Profile
-
I am a qualitative researcher working on the New Roles in Mental Health project (NIHR funded) which is looking at the implementation of new staff roles in Mental Health Trusts and their impact on existing teams.
I previously worked for many years in the field of patient information and clinical governance in the NHS and Macmillan Cancer Support.
My PhD in Health Informatics explored the use of online support groups for people with alcohol problems, and their impact on user beliefs about drinking. I am also interested in change management and in the wider use of the Internet and social media for support and information about health.
