Description: In this educational episode, Naman Julka-Anderson and Jo McNamara sit down with Christopher Tuckett, a senior NHS leader and physiotherapist with a career spanning clinical practice, service improvement and strategic AHP leadership. He has led across acute, community and national settings, with a strong focus on quality, value and workforce optimisation. Christopher is currently undertaking a PhD exploring the acceptability of healthcare interventions, including digital models of care, bringing fresh insight into how technology, behaviour and service design intersect to improve outcomes and productivity.

This episode is a deep dive into life as an AHP, career development, leadership and research into digital models of care.
