Biography

I joined ScHARR in 1995 working on various projects including Business Process Re-engineering; Community Midwifery Support Worker Study (CMSW) and Maternity Leaflets.

In 1999 I worked on the Working Group on Acute Purchasing until it was disbanded in 2000. I then became a part of the ScHARR Rapid Reviews Group, which was later renamed the ScHARR Technology Assessment Group.

Current Projects

I now work as the Programme Administrator to the ScHARR Technology Assessment Group providing support to the Technology Assessment Reviews (TARs) Programme. I am also Personal Assistant to Dr Eva Kaltenthaler and Professor Matt Stevenson.

I also provided support to the related interim Excellence in Decision Making (iEDM) which superseded the Evidence-based Commissioning Collaboration (EBCC).

I am the Health and Safety Sectional Officer for HEDS and also act as an e-Recruiter for ScHARR.
