NEL: Challenges of Career Progression – Advancing Cancer Care & Career Development Education Sessions

May 13 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am

Wednesday 13th May 2026, 9am – 10am

This is session 5 in the Advancing Cancer Care & Career Development Education Sessions.

This session will be presented by Dr Samantha Strumeier, Lead Uro-Oncology CNS (Barts Health):

After working as an independent Nurse Practitioner with a Doctorate in Nursing, I relocated to a new country, leaving behind my established professional identity and network. Transitioning into a different healthcare system required humility, resilience, and adaptability. I faced cultural, structural, and professional challenges while navigating new standards and expectations. Through perseverance, I rebuilt my credibility, advanced to a senior leadership role, and contributed to innovative service development and research. This journey strengthened my leadership, advocacy, and global perspective on nursing practice.

By the end of the session, you will learn:

  • To integrate advanced practice expertise within a new healthcare system.
  • To develop leadership and research capacity in nursing.
  • To establish professional credibility and influence through innovation and collaboration.
