My journey in the NHS started with becoming a porter for 6 months then I moved into theatre as a healthcare assistant for 6 years. I am now a newly qualified nurse working in Salford Royal Emergency Department. I was shortlisted for student nurse innovation in practice in 2023 and won this category, which is still giving me goosebumps when I think about it. I am extremely excited about seeing the innovations other students have came up with in the 2024 awards.
