I am the Knowledge Specialist at Gloucestershire Hospitals, where I lead the Library & Knowledge Services evidence searching, training and current awareness services. I also facilitate knowledge sharing across both the Trust and Gloucestershire ICS, in various ways including the creation and management of this evidence and research repository. I am passionate about empowering staff to use high-quality evidence to improve patient care, secure research and service development funding, and make effective, cost-efficient decisions. While at Gloucestershire Hospitals I have conducted published research into the impact of an information skills programme for prospective Student Nursing Associates, and in previous roles I have co-authored systematic and scoping reviews with different groups. I am keen to carry out more research into the impact of Library and Knowledge services, and support others to conduct high-quality research.
