I am the Deputy Library & Knowledge Services Manager at Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Trust. I have over 25 years experience as a medical librarian. Evidence-based practice lies at the heart of everything we do and I promote the value of evidence and research any time I can in order to benefit patient care and the staff in the Trust. I also co-host a podcast on behalf of the Trust's Nursing, Midwifery and Allied Health Professionals Research Council which aims to demystify the research process and encourage more staff to get involved with research projects and publication.
