Natasha has been nursing since 1991 when she worked at St Thomas Hospital. In 2017, she took the Lead Stoma Care Nurse Specialist role at UHBW and continues in her determination to bring service improvement and positive recognition to the team. She has co-led a national task-force committed to raising the profile of the stoma care nursing profession and protecting the role, co-authoring a paper and presenting regularly on the work. The project has been adopted as an ASCNUK project and as Honorary Treasurer of ASCNUK (elected 2023), this gives Natasha further opportunity to advocate for, and demonstrate the worth of the specialist nursing profession.
