How long have you worked at St Rocco’s?
This is my second job at the Hospice, and I have been in this role now for nearly 5 years.
I originally started at the old Hospice as a Staff Nurse and then moved across to our present building when it opened. I then became the Day Unit Sister and held that post for about 15 years, before helping to set up our Hospice at Home service with Tracy Griffin. Following this, I went on to become a Clinical Nurse Specialist, supporting day unit patients with clinical reviews. I also provided acupuncture clinics once a week.
What is your favourite food?
I don’t have one, as I like lots of different food, although I am a pescatarian, so no meat.
What is your favourite song/music?
I love lots of different types of music, so impossible to say!

What is the best thing about your job?
Helping to support the clinical team.
What do you do to switch off from work?
I have 11 grandchildren and another one due in October so am always kept very busy.
I enjoy holidays away to have some relaxation time, and love to walk and also to read. I also like gardening and growing my own fruit and vegetables.
