Local MP Diana Johnson visits the Faculty

We were delighted to welcome Diana Johnson MP (Hull North) who visited the Faculty on 7 March 2014 to gain an insight into the education of health professionals. This provided an opportunity to explore the challenges faced by students preparing for a career in the health service within higher education and for the Faculty supporting them - through discussion with the Dean, Professor Steven Ersser, Professor Kate Galvin, Professor of Nursing Practice and Mrs Deborah Robinson, Director of Pre-qualifying Studies.  Diana met with students from the Adult Nursing, Operating Department Practitioner, Learning Disability, Mental Health and Child Health fields. In providing feedback Diana indicated that she found the students engaging and vocal on their views about their education and the health service. Diana was then given a tour of the Centre for Clinical Skills by Dr Carol Purcell, Academic Lead, and Janice Nolan, Clinical Skills Support Assistant.
