Hedda Nyhus

Hedda obtained her Bachelors in Nursing Science from the University of Oslo and has eight years of clinical experience encompassing emergency medicine, acute gynaecology/obstetric care and tropical medicine.

Drawing on her experience working in acute care, interest in clinical research and the ambition to work within the humanitarian sector – she completed her Master’s Degree in International Health in 2014. Following this she worked as an Emergency Nursing Advisor for the King’s Sierra Leone Partnership in Sierra Leone, before joining the EMERGE team this autumn.
Hedda is delighted to have been given the opportunity to work in a research active role – being able to learn more about research in the ED setting, as well as getting to know and learn from enthusiastic and motivated nurses and clinicians. She is new to the NHS, and looks forward to embarking on new challenges.
