Meet the senior nursing team

Tracy McDonnell

Lead Nurse For Endoscopy Services + EOE Academy Lead Nurse

My job role is to be responsible for the management and delivery of high quality patient focused care and services within endoscopy in line with best practice outcomes.

After a long and varied nursing career I joined the endoscopy team in 1992. After 31 years in endoscopy I still have a passion for the speciality. I have enjoyed my time and over the years seen many changes in practice which has allowed us to carry out state-of-the-art procedures and have one of the biggest and busiest endoscopy units in the country.

My role has changed over the years and it is more operational now but I still strive to improve standards and make sure that we provide a safe and caring environment for all whilst providing a high quality service.

Mel Constante-MacCallum

Senior Sister

I have been at the NNUH now for eight years and I am still enjoying this specialty.  Taking the senior post in a new big hospital is challenging but the reward was sweet.  I am focused and determined to give the best care for my patients and to all the service users.  The endoscopy unit is one of the busiest in the country.  Due to the increased activity, we needed a big unit.  The Quadram Institute will house our new purpose built endoscopy unit.  Patients will benefit to this amazing brand new unit that will accommodate diagnostic activities, delivering fast and timely procedures to the residents of Norwich and Norfolk. I am proud that I have been part of this big project from start to finish.

 

Anne Bujak

Senior Sister

I have been working for the NHS for a long time in various roles, with a gap for bringing up my family. I worked at the old Norfolk and Norwich in the Intensive Care Unit before moving away from Norfolk, and I was happy to have the opportunity to move back once my children had flown the nest. Endoscopy is a very interesting area to work in as it is so varied and now the development of the new unit is giving us all a huge challenge.

 

 

Rebecca Jennings

Senior Sister

I have had a varied career ranging from acute to community settings before settling into Endoscopy in 2017 where I found an absolute love for it. I am proud to say that I am a contributor to Endoscopy, and I hope that I will continue to love, adapt and change along with the Endoscopy service demands for years to come here at the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital Trust. I am a newer member of the team as a Senior Sister, I look forward to all the challenges it brings and knowledge I will gain in this role and hope to bring in some fresh thinking. So far, it has been a pleasure as the team is so welcoming and supportive, and I hope this reflects in our patient care.
