Prof. Joy Duxbury

 

JoyDuxburyJoy is Professor in Mental Health Nursing and leads the Centre for Mental Health & Wellbeing within the School of Health at the University of Central Lancashire, England. She has a background in forensic and acute inpatient mental health care. Joy has conducted extensive research into staff and patients’ perspectives on aspects of risk and safety with a specific focus upon aggression, coercive practices including restraint and medication management. Her work and publications reflect her interest in applied social justice.

Joy is particularly keen to work with service users and carers to understand the challenges they face when accessing care and their perspectives on therapeutic and non-therapeutic relationships. This largely relates to mental health but also includes areas of investigation across the life span including end of life care and dementia. Consequently, service users and carers partner with Joy and her team on a number of research projects.
