I was supported to achieve Clinical Nurse Specialist status and I am now the Nurse Unit Manager. This career pathway has enabled me to practice as an expert clinician caring for people during their most vulnerable moments, and now to work as a leader and manager of an amazing nursing team.” - Amy Revett NUM
