Mark has lead on Preceptorship in the independent sector for 5 years. With his experience working as a HCA before qualifying as a RMN in 2004, knowledge gained as a Management of Violence and Aggression Tutor for 6 years and training staff in H&S, BLS and other areas, he understands the amount of pressure a newly qualified nurse can feel, when starting in that first new job. Be that on the ward or even that first day in induction!

Mark has spent his time speaking with hundreds of students, listening to what they want in a Preceptorship and has supported almost 300 newly qualified nurses through their Preceptorship. With the backing of Elysium Healthcare, the programme has been accredited by the RCN and delivers two cohorts, starting 6 months a part, with 11 days of training over 12 months away from hospital services!

Angela Stewart

Angela Stewart, mother of three with over 30 years children’s nursing experience in the NHS, saw the gap in the market in caring for children with complex health needs within the community and founded NurtureCare in 2013.

Growing from a spare room in her house to an award winning multi-million pound business in a prime Nottingham city location in under five years, Angela has been the catalyst that expanded NurtureCare to over four counties and shows no signs of slowing down.

Having recently added Nurture Academy, a specialist training division, to her portfolio of successful ventures, Angela now has her sights firmly set to national, international expansion and the opening of the first NurtureCare Respite Care Home.
