Watch and listen to Jackie Sturt, Professor of Behavioural Medicine in Nursing at the Florence Nightingale School of Nursing and Midwifery, King's College London, for her inaugural lecture.
This lecture considers the role of emotional and psychological health in the execution of the complex and enduring demands of managing life with a long term health condition.
The role of the health care professional in this context is changing. More psychological care workers are employed in the NHS, more nurses, doctors and allied health professionals are undertaking training to find more effective ways to support people to manage their pain, their glycaemia, their mood, their breathing, their fatigue.
