Bernie McInally

Clinical Studies Officer

Biography

I have been a Clinical Studies Officer with the NDN since 2010, and working with ENRICH (ENabling Research In Care Home) Scotland since 2011. Before joining the research team, I worked as a Community Psychiatric Nurse (CPN) in older adults for 20 plus years, during which time I set up nurse led clinics in the Scottish Borders. I later went on to specialising in Dementia/Alzheimer’s early/differential diagnosis which brought me to the NDN.
