I loved this opportunity to talk & reflect. The nursing associate role is expanding and I'm incredibly proud to have been part of developing this new profession. Martyn and I had a stroll back to the past in this podcast & talked about the future.

🎙️ New Episode Tomorrow! 🎙️ I chat with Paige Barsby, a Nursing Associate in surgical theatres and educator. Hear about her journey, working in high-pressure environments, and shaping the future of the role! Don't miss it! 💉 #JustASharpScratch #NursingAssociate #Podcast #NHS
