Moira Evans, Clinical Marketing Manager at Welland Medical Ltd, UK. Registered Nurse, Tissue Viability & Stoma care nurse 

I qualified as a general nurse in 1992 and went onto specialize in both tissue viability and stoma care. I have been involved with both patient and specialist nurse studies since 2012, with particular interest in the clinical research into peristomal skin complications and the benefits of the Manuka honey hydrocolloid adhesive. Some of these studies have either been published or presented to nursing conferences around the world.
