Professor Shirley Bach is an academic at the University of Brighton, where she explores nursing as an academic discipline. Her work focuses on theoretical maturity in nursing knowledge and the concept of caring in healthcare practice. She delivered an inaugural lecture titled Where angels fear to tread on 24 April 2013 at Westlain House Lecture Theatre, addressing nursing's dual role as both a profession and an academic field.
Her research examines how nursing establishes its identity beyond traditional disciplines like biology or sociology, while maintaining its service-oriented, practice-based professional ethos. The lecture challenges perceptions of nursing as purely 'caring' and questions the discipline's intellectual boundaries.
