She was presented with a necklace and hamper of goodies to mark her long service. Lynne first started in a dual role as receptionist/dispenser, before becoming a full-time dispenser then health care assistant.

 

She already completed an assistant practitioner course and is currently topping that up with an 18-month nursing apprenticeship, completing placements at Oundle and Peterborough City Hospital before her course finishes in a few months.

Once qualified she will be able to carry out smear tests, travel vaccinations, child immunisations and chronic disease management.

Lynne said:

"I opted for the nursing apprenticeship route to broaden the scope of what I can offer. The nursing team here is lovely, works well together and has a massive amount of experience. I really enjoy working with our patients, they know me well as I have obviously worked here for a long time already and will be for many years to come, so completing my nursing training seemed like the right decision."
