Agnes had various roles in the NHS but found her niche when she qualified as a District Nurse.
Working as a District Nurse enabled Agnes to work with student nurses sharing her enthusiasm and knowledge of District Nursing. This resulted in Agnes taking a position at Buckinghamshire New University. She became Course Leader for the community programmes and later became Associate Professor. Agnes’ interest in maintaining high quality patient care inspired her doctoral studies into how social innovation can enhance patient care in the community.
Since leaving the University, Agnes has been working as an independent consultant for the QICN. However, Agnes is now a member of the QICN staff and works 2-3 days per week. She leads on the development of the QICN’s Field Specific Standards.
Agnes led the Care Home Nurses Network until 2025 when it merged into the Adult Social Care Nurses Network. She is now the Lead of the newly launched Faculty of Adult Social Care Nursing and Co-Lead for the Adult Social Care Nursing Network.
