NICOLA JOINS THE HART TRAINING TEAM

07.09.2009

Nicola Harrington has joined the HART training faculty at Winterbourne Gunner, Salisbury, as the new PA to the HART Training Lead, Dave Bull. She will also provide HART Training and Project Admin Support.

Nicola has been seconded from the Health Protection Agency, where she was involved in setting up exercises and events for the Emergency Response Department. One recent exercise in Kent called Saxon Shore included HART, so she has been lucky enough to see the teams in action!

Nicola worked for the Metropolitan Police Service for five years as a Communication Officer, and spent two years within a Project Team, the aim of which was to relocate local police control rooms into three central control hubs.

She has also worked in the control room at London Ambulance Service. During her time at the LAS she saw many changes including the relocation of the control room and the move from pen and paper to a computerised call-taking and dispatching system.

Says Nicola: “I am really excited to be part of HART and I hope that some of my previous experience can be transferred over to assist in delivering the team’s objectives over the next two years.”

Nicola’s contact details are: Nicola Harrington, PA to HART Training Lead / HART Training and Project Admin Support, National CBRN Centre, Winterbourne Gunner, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP4 0ES. Tel: +44 (0)1980 619565 and email: nicola.harrington@ambulancehart.org.
