Dr Grahame Smith

Nursing and Allied Health

Faculty of Health

I am mental health nursing academic, a reader (associate professor) in mental health innovation and the founder and centre lead for the centre for collaborative innovation in dementia, an accredited health living lab - European Network of Living Labs (ENoLL). I currently support the work of the North West Coast Clinical Research Network (NIHR) as a Research Speciality Lead in Dementia. I continue to practice, research and publish within the mental health nursing field, my specific interests include living well with dementia, user-centric innovation (health), and mental health ethics. As a qualified and practicing leadership coach and mentor I have an interest in NLP and mindfulness.

As an educational professional I am a NMC teacher and a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. I continue to maintain my clinical skills through my research-to-innovation work. I also work with people living with dementia through my role as the lead for the centre in collaborative innovation in dementia. Since 2012 I have worked in partnership with both national and international partners on a number of research-to-innovation projects, helping to secure over £20 million of funding. During the delivery of these projects I have produced over ninety research-to-innovation outputs.

As a methodological pragmatist I have used a number of research methodologies within a living lab context (co-production), participatory action research being the main methodological approach. At doctoral level I have an expertise in interpretative phenomenological analysis. My teaching interests include; pre-registration mental health nursing; post-registration & post-graduate programmes (specifically mental health philosophy and ethics; leadership ethics; personality disorders; dementia and descriptive psychopathology).
