Our team also work on child vaccinations and wound care (promoting healing and preventing infection). Cervical cytology – what used to be known as smear tests – and contraception reviews are a key part of our role, along with generally promoting health and wellbeing. I’ve worked in the NHS for over 30 years. I’ve been full time at Brunton Park since 2017.
