    She has over 20 years’ experience in advising NHS providers and NHS commissioners, independent healthcare and social care providers and insurers working in the health and social care sector. Belinda has advised on a broad range of matters including the regulatory framework, issues arising under the Mental Capacity Act, patient confidentiality, clinical governance, patient safety and safeguarding.

    Belinda’s experience in advising health and social care clients means that she is an expert in understanding the regulatory framework that they operate in and is used to providing urgent, pragmatic assistance to clients within that context.

    • Clients engaged in historic patient reviews where concerns have been raised surrounding a particular individual or service.
    • Interested Parties in relation to complex inquests including representation at the hearing.

    • Clients in respect of reconfiguration of services including advice on the requirements surrounding public consultation and successfully defending NHS providers and commissioners at Judicial Review.
    • Organisations undergoing a police investigation including strategic advice to ensure that any reputational damage is minimised.

    In addition, Belinda has delivered training throughout her professional career to a wide range of healthcare professionals and is an experienced public speaker.
