Dr Graham McClelland

Assistant Professor

Department: Nursing, Midwifery & Health

I am a paramedic by background and worked for North East Ambulance Service for 20 years (Advanced Technician, Paramedic, HART Paramedic, Research Paramedic, Paramedic Research Fellow) before joining Northumbria University. I have been involved in clinical research since 2011 and would describe myself as a pragmatic mixed methods researcher.

Research Themes and Scholarly Interests

My research interests include prehospital and emergency care of stroke as well as prehospital care of other time critical conditions. More broadly I am interested in anything involving paramedics or ambulance services.
