Michelle Cumming Operational Lead, Child and Family Services

Michelle trained as a Registered Nurse at Birmingham’s Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH) and qualified in 1989. Following qualification, Michelle worked on the Head and Neck Unit at QEH and undertook a diploma in Head and Neck Nursing, working as a nurse specialist with adults and children. This specialty brought her to Jersey General Hospital (JGH) where she continued to work in Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT), alongside General Surgical and Orthopaedic patients. Before moving into the community in 2005, she spent six years caring for gynaecological patients on JGH’s dedicated unit.

Michelle completed her degree as a Health Visitor at Aberdeen’s, Robert Gordon University and started working for FNHC in 2005 as a Health Visitor, before taking the role of Operational Lead for Health Visitors, School Nurses, Community Nursery Nurses and the Community Children’s Nurse Team in 2012. This hugely interesting, stimulating and rewarding role offers many opportunities to positively affect the health and well-being of children, young people and families in Jersey.

Michelle is committed to family health and wellbeing improvement through provision of supportive services, delivered by child and family practitioners and in partnership with children, young people and their families.
