In this episode, we are joined by Chloë Hammond, a trailblazing clinical nurse who is breaking down barriers in the healthcare industry, and her amazing assistance dog, Ocho.
Despite being a wheelchair user and an assistance dog owner after being diagnosed with a rare disease at the age of 15, Chloë thrives in her role as one of the few disabled nurses in the UK.
In this episode, we'll explore Chloë's unique journey as a nurse with a disability, the importance of assistance dogs, how Ocho enhances Chloë's life, and the shockingly low representation of disabled individuals in the healthcare workforce and what needs to change.
This engaging conversation will challenge your perspective, ignite inspiration, and leave you with valuable insights on disability inclusion and achieving dreams despite adversity.
