She is Chair of the Spirituality in Research and Innovation Group (SRIG) formed at the School in 2013, and originally called the Spirituality Interest Group. This group has more than 30 members from various disciplines and aims to raise awareness of spirituality in healthcare. Fiona finds the field of spirituality incredibly interesting from a practice and intellectual perspective. She has been fortunate to have had a rewarding career as a nurse, which has led to a particular interest in patient-centred care, and nurse-patient relationships. In particular she is interested in developing best practice, preparing Ireland’s future nurses for their nursing career, and supporting the spiritual and individual needs of patients.
