About Me

My photo
Tony Warne
I am a Professor Emeritus in Mental Health at the University of Salford. I retired in 2017 and was the former Dean of the School of Health and Society. I worked in NHS mental health care services since 1975, both as a practitioner, and service manager. After leaving the NHS in 1995 I joined Manchester Metropolitan University, gaining my PhD in 2000. In 2006, I was appointed Professor at the University of Salford. The focus of my research interest is on inter-personal, intra-personal and extra-personal relationships, using a psychodynamic and managerialist analytical discourse. I have published extensively in these areas and I am the co-editor and author of the books Using Patient Experience in Nurse Education and Creative Approaches to Health and Social Care Education. I am currently the Chair at Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust. All views, subjects, thoughts, facts and opinions expressed in this blog reflect only my views and not the wider views of any organisation I’m associated with.
