Nurse Specialist Ashley Shields: Researching older people’s nutrition

Over the last few months we have been delighted to have Nurse Specialist, Ashley Shields working with us at the AGE Research Group.  After completing his NIHR Newcastle BRC research internship Ashley has continued to work with Professor Miles Witham and Professor Sian Robinson using his research findings to determine how we can support older peoples’ nutrition and their management of chronic long-term conditions.

He shares what he’s learned and how he hopes to help his nursing colleagues to improve their patients’ health and wellbeing. Read the full NIHR Newcastle BRC article here: NHS nurse and BRC work together to support older people’s nutrition.
