Biography
I joined the Centre for Applied Dementia Studies in September 2015 where I currently work as an Assistant Professor in Dementia Studies. I am the Programme Leader for the PgCert/PgDip/MSc Advanced Dementia Studies and Module Leader for the 'Evaluating dementia practice' and 'Leading change in practice' modules. My background is in Gerontology and I hold a PhD in Gerontology and Geriatrics. My PhD thesis was entitled Supporting dementia care workers – exploring the effects of a psycho-educational intervention. I have varied research interests - care home workforce, improving person-centred care; technology in dementia care; and living with dementia and other conditions - and have been involved in varied research projects over the years (e.g. Falls in Care Homes (FinCH); Coronavirus and Dementia in Care Homes (CoDeC)). I am currently part of the INTERDEM taskforce groups Technology and Dementia and Palliative and End of life care. I'm also chair of their website commitee. Within the University I am member of the Humanities, Social and Health Sciences Ethics Committee.
