Biography
After graduating from Keele in 1968 I joined the NHS as a policy researcher in Cheshire County Council Health Department, progressing through various service development and planning roles to Regional Service Planning Officer for Mersey Regional Health Authority in 1983.
In 1986 I returned to Keele as Lecturer in the Centre for Health Planning and Management, with a portfolio of teaching, research, and external advisory work, focussing on health information, service quality and service planning, particularly for non-acute services. I progressed to a personal Chair in Health Information Strategy in 2005.
I retired in 2009 and was appointed Emeritus Professor. I now live in Ireland and undertake selected policy and research advisory roles.
