Reviews
Carol was my titration nurse while finding a medication for newly diagnosed ADHD. My titration was not a quick process and I had to try several different medications before finding one that helped me. Even though I'm sure my messages were somewhat chaotic and rambling at times, she always responded with clear information and compassion. I never once felt judged. I know that the nurses at Psychiatry UK are under a huge workload at the moment; despite this and my lengthy titration, Carol always responded swiftly and without making me feel like a burden. I'm very grateful to her and the entirety of Psychiatry UK - my diagnosis and medication have been life changing.
Carol was very helpful and responded in a timely fashion to my Portal messages. Sometimes, I felt that she hadn't read my messages fully, and so I would have to send another message to clarify the point/s she had 'missed' in my message.
Excellent and prompt titration
I found Carol to be very understanding and sympathetic to my needs throughout titration. I also found her suggestions and advice to be very helpful and felt as if she was taking who I am into consideration when doing so. I would highly recommend her and it is always good to be seen as a human rather than a patient, and she does this.
Carol has been really helpful and listened to me throughout my time with her as my nurse. I would recommend her, she has been really understanding and I have felt I can reach out if needs be.

Profile
I am a registered nurse prescriber. I started my journey as a mental health nurse by completing the recognised nursing course in the UK. Since qualifying as a nurse in 2011, I have worked in acute inpatient and community settings. I have helped pioneered the start of an NHS Adult ADHD service in 2011 and developed the service together with a Consultant Psychiatrist and provided a nurse led service for adults. Since 2011, I have participated in training conferences to help train other clinicians who were planning to start an adult ADHD service in their locality or those who have just started working in an adult ADHD service. I have given talks about the nurse led Adult ADHD service that I have helped pioneered in conferences/training sessions.
I was voted Clinician of The Year in 2017 in the NHS Trust I was working with, and this reflects my dedication and commitment to continue to develop my nursing practice and deliver the best nursing intervention to those in need.
