About Shona

I help healthcare teams and digital providers deliver safer, smoother, and more user-centred systems. With a background in nursing and several years in digital health, I’ve supported EPR rollouts, UAT, testing, and clinical engagement across health care sites.

I specialize in bridging the gap between clinical and technical teams — translating workflows, designing training and comms, and supporting go-live delivery. Whether it’s refining user journeys or coordinating testing, I focus on making digital change feel clear and workable for the people using it day-to-day.

Typical projects: digital transformation support, UAT coordination, stakeholder engagement, clinical systems implementation, and user communications.
