Liz, who has been in her current role for seven years, said: “We follow patients from the point of breaking bad news and throughout treatment. We get to see them at home, and then if all goes well, we sort of send them off well and treated.
“The treatment is fantastic – they can do some really amazing things now, but sometimes people just can’t be cured, and that’s obviously absolutely tragic.
“It’s an absolute privilege to be nominated. Being shortlisted has come at a challenging time so it is nice to be appreciated for clinical nurse specialists all around.
“I’ve got a fantastic team of nurses that work with me, so it’s not just me, I’m not just a one-man band, but it means a lot.”
