Lesley's background was in intensive care and recovery nursing for both the NHS and military sectors before becoming a clinical teacher and a nurse teacher. After majoring in social ethics, Lesley’s research interests have focused on ethics and work-based learning. As an informal carer, she supported a close relative at home having renal haemodialysis. As a result of this experience, she is aware of the vulnerability of the older person with a long-term condition being cared for in the community during the transition of change in the NHS.
