Jill Maggs, EdD, MMedSci, MCSP, STRC Affiliate
Jill has worked extensively in healthcare and higher education on both sides of the Atlantic. Her career started as a Physiotherapist in the UK where, as a junior therapist, she contributed to the management of children and adults with CF. Her career progressed away from clinical practice towards education and research. Jill’s doctoral training in qualitative inquiry enabled her to pursue her interest in the experience of living with progressive conditions and in the post-qualification development of healthcare professionals. She has developed and taught a range of graduate and postgraduate programs for a variety of institutions.
The youngest (28) of Jill’s three adult children lives with CF. Jill is now a full-time carer but enjoys the opportunity to place her experiences of qualitative research and CF parenting to good use for the CF Foundation and STRC.
