A qualified midwife for 14 years, for the last 3 years Fozia has worked as the Digital Midwife at Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. Fozia is passionate about innovation that improves patient outcomes and releases time to back to care in a world where resources are limited. She represents her clinical colleagues and bridges the gap between digital and clinical, supporting changes that improve patient safety.

Fozia successfully led the implementation of the maternity electronic care record and works closely with digital and technical colleagues to ensure that new projects and innovations improve front line care, giving staff access to the right systems in the right way.

Fozia is proud to be a member of the Digital Midwives Expert Reference Group, and a Shuri Network Digital Fellow, being part of the first cohort of Midwives to enrol in the programme.
