University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust’s Post

"It's a privilege to work with such great people and, of course, our patients. I think you learn so much about people, everyone's so different. That's why I love working in a clinic, because everyone's completely diverse in every way. I never really considered anything else." Meet UCLH clinical nurse specialist Jackie Turner, who is celebrating an incredible milestone – 50 years’ service in the NHS. Jackie started her training in 1974 at UCLH’s legacy hospital – the former Middlesex Hospital London and has worked in various roles across London before returning to UCLH as a fracture clinic sister for more than 20 years. Jackie has now been a clinical nurse specialist here for the past 12 years, treating post-operative patients with a range of hand conditions. Vanessa Sweeney, chief nurse, said “Jackie embodies the spirit and values of UCLH and of nursing as a profession. It’s evident from her remarkable career that her enthusiasm, dedication and knowledge has helped many people, and will inspire many more.” David Probert, chief executive, said “It makes me immensely proud to hear Jackie’s story, and of the commitment and compassion she brings to her role. Her wealth of expertise and skill is a credit to UCLH, and I would like to congratulate her on this incredible milestone.” Find out more about Jackie's remarkable 50 years’ service: https://buff.ly/4bqoVoc #NHS76 #OneTeam
