Debi Horrocks
I completed the conversion course to gain my RMN qualifications in l988 whilst working for Pennine Care, where I worked from l986 until 2016. I worked in a variety of roles including ward work and also in the community.
I recently retired from the NHS, my last role being as a Community Psychiatric Nurse.
I have found that since my retirement working with Tranquil TMS has been extremely rewarding as you follow the patient through their treatment from start to finish and it feels good to see an improvement in their wellbeing on a weekly basis.
Mary Lord
I ended my career working as a Triage and Community Mental Health Nurse in Tameside, retiring from full time employment in 2014.
Now I have found that working for Tranquil TMS has given me the opportunity to once again use my skills in working with people who are suffering with anxiety and depression. Involvement during the course of their treatment allows them to be monitored and their progress reviewed on a weekly basis. Seeing the improvement that they make is a very rewarding aspect of the job and makes it a worthwhile role.
Janette Marchbank
I am a qualified learning disability nurse and qualified in 1989. I worked within the constraints of a hospital environment but towards the end of my working career moved into community teams supporting individuals and families.
I was a representative for the Royal College of nursing and continued to help others in times of need. In my personal life I like to rise to challenges and enjoy rock climbing indoor and outdoor when the weather is good. I am involved in raising funds for a number of charities and complete walking and cycling charities for children which takes me on travels around the world.
I retired from my substantive full time post mid 2020 and an opportunity to continue to help others became available through TMS. I joined an established team and have found since joining the team it has been a new learning experience. To observe changes in individuals from commencement of treatment to maintenance has been a positive experience.
Monica
I qualified as a medical secretary in 1979 having completed the AMSPAR Medical Secretary Diploma at Tameside College. I then decided to retrain and completed the AMSPAR administrative Diploma at Salford College. I have also completed a Certificate in Practice Management Studies at Worsley College Oxford Radcliffe Medical Press. Following that, I studied MSc in Management Practices at Salford University. I also completed Certificate in Financial Awareness for Practice Managers.
I worked as a medical receptionist/secretary from 1979 – 1984. After retraining I became a practice manager in 1984. I retired from General Practice in 2021 but decided to return to the NHS working as a medical secretary again in 2021. I joined Tranquil TMS as a secretary and admin support in March 2024.
I enjoy being able to support not only the patient but their family and at Tranquil TMS I get to know them and see them progress which is very rewarding.
