Thank you to our partner Hallam Medical.
Thank you 🙏
Good question. I will likely need to suggest a plan so I can prescribe safely. I can barely do my job in the time allocated at the minute as it is so will need more time per consultation if I pass my course!

I’m just coming to the end of the V300! What a journey. No idea if I’m succeeding or failing! Primary care is a difficult place to know!
Fantastic to see two Queen's Nurses and QICN Fellows honoured in the King's 2026 New Year Honours list! 🎉
A huge congratulations to Michelle Cox who was awarded an MBE for services to Nursing and Patient Outcomes and Gill Boast who was appointed an MBE for services to Primary Care Nursing. 👏

Loved speaking at one of the regional Queen’s Nurse meetings today about parish nursing. Telling other registered nurses with a huge expertise in various areas about how parish nurses impact whole communities was so encouraging. #partnerships #holistichealth
Not a bad morning visiting York as part of my work with Parish Nursing Ministries UK as I complete the planning of a new parish nursing service in the city. This will be up and running very soon. #everychurchneedsaparishnurse
We are delighted to reveal our exciting news: we have changed our name and are now known officially as The Queen's Institute of Community Nursing!

1st camping trip of the year. Hopes to see the northern lights but it wasn’t to be. Lovely sunset though. Good for self care and to decompress!
Anyone wanting to know about parish nursing please join me tomorrow for a free 1 hr session.
Amazing programme supporting refugees who are nurses to be supported in training and use their wealth of knowledge and expertise to nurse here in the Uk! Welcome to each of them into the nursing family.
A glimpse of colour in what can often feel like a grey world. There are better times to come! 🙏😊
Thank you also to Fr Naylor for your oversight and leadership. We look forward to continued partnership working in the years to come.
She has championed parish nursing as a ministry for registered nurses across the Anglo Catholic denomination and other Christian denominations and has influenced us greatly at PNMUK.
We want to say a huge thank you to Michaela who has provided professionalism and wisdom in her role. She has spearheaded unified working across #Sheffield city centre for people who are vulnerable and often on the edge of statutory services.
I had the honour of attending the commissioning of new lead #parish #nurse Louise as she takes hold of the baton from former lead nurse Michaela.
Louise is compassionate and caring and will be a huge asset to this parish nursing service.
