Research project: An Investigation of successful implementation of genomics in nursing practice in United Kingdom
Abstract
Aspects of genetics/genomics are increasingly being integrated into medicine. To transform healthcare through genomic nurses can play a crucial part because they are central to the public's health through health promotion, prevention and improvement of ill-health. Nurses are often the first point of contact for patients and are best placed to communicate with patients and families. Nurses coordinate multiple services and agencies involved in care. My PhD aims to investigate this area and facilitate the implementation and translation of genomics to nursing practice; patients' bedside; and healthcare service.

Biography
I am a PhD student in the Faculty of Health, Social Care and Education. I am investigating the implementation of genomics in nursing practice using Grounded Theory. I hold a master's degree in nursing and Healthcare from the University of West London and a bachelor's degree in nursing from the Azad University of Tonekabun - Iran. I have worked in social care and the community in the UK for the last ten years and am a registered Nurse in Iran, where I am originally from. Throughout my career, I have designed and established various care services. Currently, I own a home care agency in Surbiton, where, with the support of my team, we support people with multiple health conditions to stay in their own home and in the community to maintain their independence.
