Hailing from Ireland, I worked in advertising, community nursing and journalism before finding my niche in 2000 when I started training for BNA, a leading nursing agency.
I enjoyed training immensely and soon went out on my own. Today, I provide a wide range of courses to a growing number of clients, including charities, independent homes and nursing home chains.
But why should you use me? How am I different? Well, apart from being reliable and knowledgeable, I relate well to students of all levels. My enthusiasm makes training enjoyable and I get results.
I also invest heavily in my own training and update a different course every month to accommodate changes in practice and keep things fresh.
