Hello, my name is Eve. I have worked in Paediatric Critical Care for fifteen years as a staff nurse, clinical support facilitator and now as lecturer practitioner. My role is split between classroom teaching where I deliver the Paediatric Critical Care L3 Course with Hannah, and bedside teaching on PICU.
I qualified in 2005 with a Master of Nursing Science from the University of Nottingham. I have an insatiable love of learning and returned to university in 2014, for my Post-Graduate Certificate in PICU from Birmingham City University, and in 2018 for my MA in Writing for Young People from Bath Spa University. In September this year I will add a fourth university to my collection, when I begin my Masters in Health Professions Education with University College London!
I have a special interest in PICU nursing staff psychological health and wellbeing, and the individual and organisational strategies we use to support this.
Top five books on my shelf: Daring Greatly by Brene Brown; The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk; Expressive Writing: Words that Heal by James Pennebaker and John Evans; The Compassionate Mind by Paul Gilbert; and Light Rains Sometimes Fall: A British Year in Micro-seasons by Lev Parikian
When I’m not at work you can find me in the woods, on the coast, or escaping into fictional worlds.
