  • A Northwick Park doctor who secured global funding to help tackle liver cancer in Sub Saharan Africa (SSA) is to receive further funding for the initiative from the Academy of Medical Sciences and Royal Society. Dr Behnam Shaygi successfully bid for the grant through a collaborative international research network and has been working with his counterparts in Tanzania as well as US clinicians from Yale, Harvard and Emory universities through non-charitable organisations. SSA has one of the highest rates of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the world but is poorly funded and researched with the one-year survival rate as low as 7%.

  • It’s #BlackHistoryMonth and throughout October our staff will be sharing their career journeys. Meet Ursula, Clinical Nurse Specialist. “My nursing journey began in Nigeria, I relocated to the UK in 2004. Joining the NHS as a qualified nurse, midwife, and ophthalmic nurse through the adaptation program. “From the very start, I was fortunate to work under the guidance of an exceptional manager. Her leadership inspired me to push my boundaries, and I remain deeply grateful for her support during those formative years. “A career milestone came when I became the first nurse to hold the bleep for the newly established stroke service. This led me to be clinical nurse manager for one of the stroke units. “In 2020, I took on a new role as clinical nurse specialist for fall prevention. I’ve had the opportunity to spearhead innovative approaches to fall prevention and management across the trust, leading to improvements that positively impact patient safety. “As a Black African nurse my heritage has instilled resilience, self-reliance, and a drive to excel, despite the challenges of adapting to a new country and complex healthcare systems. “Reflecting on my progress, I am reminded of the importance of mentorship and sponsorship in career advancement. Equally important are inclusion and belonging in the workplace, values that must be continually fostered and practiced. “I am also passionate about mentoring others, reminding them they can aspire to greatness and fully utilize their potential, gifts, and skills. “I am proud and excited for the future and remain committed to pursuing excellence in nursing and healthcare delivery.”

  • The newly named Children and Young Person’s Emergency Department will now treat all young people under the age of 18. Previously, some older children and young people would be seen in adult A&E. Helen Iyama, lead nurse for paediatrics on the unit, had the honour of cutting the ribbon. She said: “We can see all children and young people in a suitable environment, separate from the adult pathways. “It means we can provide the right care, in the right place, with the right multi-disciplinary teams, and have the support of other specialities when we need them.”
