Professor Steven Ersser, Dean of the Faculty of Health & Social Care
was externally nominated
and then secured first prize in the ‘Dermatology Nurse of the Year’
Award at the British Journal of Nursing Awards ceremony, held in London
on Friday. Further pictures and information are at http://www.bjnawards.co.uk/night.
Professor Ersser said: 'It is essential that I pay tribute to the support I
have received by my colleagues in the Skin Health & Skin Integrity
team here at the University of Hull (as part of the Faculty’s Wellbeing in
Long-Term Conditions Research Group). They have been invaluable in helping
to make this award possible, especially Dr Fiona Cowdell and others including
Mrs Kathy Radley (Lecturer in Skin Health & Dermatology Care) and Dr
Katerina Stevenson (Post Doctoral Research Fellow) and the Visting Faculty who
support us.'
Professor Ersser holds the only Chair in the combined fields of
nursing and dermatology care worldwide. As well as the team engaging in
research and development work in the skin/dermatology nursing care, the team are
developing educational programmes in this clinical specialty area. He also
leads the preparations for the nursing scientific meeting at the World
Congress of Dermatology in Vancouver in 2015, as a member of the
International Skin Care Nursing Advisory Board and in conjunction with the
Dermatology Nurses Association in the USA.
