Your speaker line-up:
Collette completed her nurse training in 1988 at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham. Once qualified, she started working on the renal medical ward. It was here where Collette gained experience in many aspects of renal care. She was then inspired to move to the haemodialysis unit caring for both chronic and acute patients.
After 11 years in which time Collette was now a junior sister on the chronic haemodialysis unit, she moved to the renal community team. The team was made up of 4 nurses whose role was to provide pre dialysis education, conservative management care and home haemodialysis. By 2010 it was evident that each area was getting bigger and harder to manage effectively. For the service to continue to offer excellent supportive care a review led to a division in the team which meant a dedicated service for both pre dialysis and home haemodialysis.
By March 2010, Collette’s role had become solely home haemodialysis. The dedicated role enabled focus and drive for the programme which in turn led to the expansion of their home haemodialysis programme.
The programme at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital is diverse in many ways and the patient group reflects that of many of their dialysis centres. It’s this ever changing challenge that keeps Collette driven.
After speciality training in England and New Zealand, Dr. Lambie was appointed as a consultant nephrologist in the UK in 2011 and he is currently a Reader in Renal Medicine at Keele University. His current roles include Training Programme Director for the Specialised Foundation Programme in the West Midlands, and Co-chair of the Midlands Kidney Network and he teaches on a variety of national and international courses.
His research spans health services, translational and epidemiological approaches to dialysis medicine, including the role of inflammation and peritoneal membrane in patient outcomes, and he is a co-investigator in Inter-CEPt, national CI for P-DOPPS in the UK and co-lead UK investigator in the POSIBIL6-ESKD and ELIXIR trials. He is co-chair of the KRUK Dialysis Research and Innovation Network, and co-chair of the UKKA Home Dialysis Special Interest Group.
