  • My clinical practice has incorporated various specialities which includes emergency medicine and acute renal patients.
  • During my time in the acute set up I had the opportunity to look after stroke, brain injury patients which henceforth give me an interest to support NEURAM UK.
  • Before qualifying as a nurse I had the opportunity to do voluntary work in a residential home in Mauritius. This involved helping, supporting and caring for the residents with various chronic health problems.
  • I find that joining NEURAM UK will give me the opportunity to support Mauritians and other global nations with neurological deficits in future.

  • Working with patients from different nationalities and culture in the private sector and NHS has enabled me to develop transferable Occupational Therapy skills that I apply creatively. I have previously worked as a case manager in a spinal cord unit which gave me expertise in planning discharges, coordinating care package by liaising with community services and voluntary sectors to reintegrate clients into their community.
  • Consolidating my clinical expertise and experience, I now free-lance as a consultant in occupational therapy in writing expert medicolegal reports to the court.
  • I believe that good clinicians make good leaders too .Therefore I recently  completed MSc in Health Management, Strategic Planning and Leadership from ‘London City university’. The degree helped me to explore current thinking on health leadership and management, including the use of practical leadership tools and approaches that can be applied to diverse situations.
