Profile

I am a Professor with over 20 years of experience in Health Services Research. I am the Director of the Centre for Urgent and Emergency Care Research (CURE) in ScHARR, a leading centre for urgent and emergency care research with a strong reputation for delivering high-quality, high-impact independent research. 

I have experience in both qualitative and quantitative research methods and am particularly interested in the use of mixed methods research, and the use of non-participant observation within health services research. 

I have led and contributed to a number of research projects in the field of emergency and urgent care. In 2011 I was awarded an NIHR Doctoral Research Fellowship to explore how pain management in Emergency Departments can be improved (IMPEDE study). I am currently PI of an NIHR-funded project exploring the use of prehospital pre-alerts and their impact on patients, ambulance service and Emergency Department staff. 

I am the School Director for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion and sit on the ScHARR Curriculum Inclusivity group, Athena Swan SAT group as well as the University Race Equality Charter self-assessment group. I have worked part-time since 2008.

I run an observational and ethnographic methods research interest group for staff and students at ScHARR.

I currently supervise two PhD students who are undertaking research in the field of prehospital care (Naif Harthi and Melanie Watson) and would be interested in hearing from students interested in undertaking mixed methods research in pre-hospital, urgent and emergency care.

Research interests

My research interests are in evaluating health care systems, patient perspectives of health services and the use of observational and ethnographic methods in health services research. I am interested in implementation science, particularly in the field of emergency care.

Current projects:

  • Service Evaluation of a Prehospital Lateral Flow Testing and Direct Hospital Admissions pathway (Yorkshire Ambulance Service)
  • Evaluation of Online NHS 111 (NIHR HS&DR)
  • Evaluation of the NHS Workforce Race Equality Standard Culture Change Pilots. (NHS England)
