Congratulations Gerald! Our Nurse of the Month for June

Gerald was chosen to be Thornbury’s June Nurse of the Month in recognition of the instrumental role he recently played in the setup of a new client project.

We caught up with Gerald on his win, read what he had to say below.

How long have you been working with Thornbury Nursing?

I have been working with Thornbury since 2015, doing ad hoc shifts as a staff nurse.

What attracted you to join Thornbury Nursing?

The variety of work. I completed my qualifications in advanced clinical practice in 2020 and, since then, I have worked on various niche projects with the Thornbury team. This includes a clinical site manager role in a university COVID testing centre during the pandemic and, more recently, I have been made clinical lead for a specific project which involves research trials.

What do you enjoy most about your job?

I enjoy the flexibility of being an agency nurse – going to different hospitals, adapting to different work practices, and picking up good clinical practices from experienced colleagues.

How do you feel about being Nurse of the Month?

I am very grateful for this recognition, but most of all appreciative of the opportunity to play a part and contribute to new and exciting projects.

Congratulations Gerald, you deserve it!
