The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Professor Lis Neubeck, head of the Centre for Cardiovascular Health at Edinburgh Napier University, on receiving the Outstanding Achievement Award at the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) Scotland Nurse of the Year Awards 2024; recognises what it sees as the tireless dedication and passion that Professor Neubeck has shown for nursing innovation and research, which, it understands, has revolutionised health care delivery, particularly in the realm of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) in Scotland; understands that, through her innovative strategies and commitment to person-centred care, she has significantly improved patient experiences and outcomes; further understands that Professor Neubeck's work began with identifying challenges in accessing specialist care for SCAD patients, leading to her research and eventual establishment of a SCAD clinic in Scotland, where her collaboration with colleagues and outreach to specialists in different fields, like menopause specialists, showcased her holistic approach to health care; believes that her rigorous research methods have not only advanced the understanding of SCAD but have also informed policy development, shaping the future of health care in Scotland, and wishes Professor Neubeck continued success in her career.
