Victoria Pearson, Birmingham and Solihull NHS Foundation Trust

Strengths I bring: Compassion, enthusiasm, sharing.

What I would like the network to achieve: I would like to connect with other people working in dementia services so I can offer the best support to my patients.

I am a Trainee ACP who moved to Birmingham specifically for this role. I have previously worked in London and Manchester, mostly specialising in older adults throughout my career.

We are setting up the Primary Care Dementia Pathway in Birmingham. We aim to reduce the waiting times for people living with an advanced dementia to obtain their diagnosis and commence treatment. https://www.bsmhft.nhs.uk/our-services/older-adult-services/
