Jodie Kirby
Lead nurse for mental health
Walsall Healthcare Trust & The Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust
I am a lead nurse for mental health working in collaboration with Walsall Healthcare Trust and the Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust. As a lead nurse for mental health I enjoy working with acute trust colleagues to support mental health patients who attend the acute trust. In my role I am able to support an innovative approach developing services, pathways and processes to support excellent quality of care. I believe students are an important part of the future of nursing and are imperative to future services. I was awarded the MH student nurse of the year for the nursing times awards in 2013 and feel honoured to be back 10 years later judging.
