Sally Bottomley

Sally Bottomley serves as Lecturer in Paramedic Science at Wrexham University, leveraging over a decade of frontline experience from the Welsh Ambulance Service NHS Trust (WAST) where she held critical roles including Senior Paramedic, Clinical Team Leader, and Duty Operations Manager.

Her academic foundation includes:

• Paramedic qualification from Swansea University (2010-2012)
• Ongoing Master's-level modules in Advanced Clinical Practice focusing on minor illnesses and clinical diagnostics

Dr. Bottomley's professional expertise centers on pre-hospital emergency systems, with specialized knowledge in infectious disease response (notably leading North East Wales' Ebola preparedness) and clinical excellence frameworks. Her teaching integrates major incident management protocols and real-world clinical diagnostics, informed by direct patient care experience with critically ill populations.

She actively develops Wrexham University's Paramedic Science curriculum to address evolving pre-hospital care challenges, emphasizing staff welfare systems and continuous professional development. Her mentorship legacy from WAST—where she guided Student Paramedics and coordinated clinical ride-outs—now shapes her academic supervision of future paramedics.
