Sabrina Cox

Graduating from Toronto Metropolitan University in Canada, I began my career in the Operating Room (OR) before transitioning to Endoscopy, a field I’ve grown to love for its dynamic and evolving nature. I moved to the UK in 2020 and started as a Band 4 Internationally Educated Nurse (IEN). Then, I progressed to Band 5 staff nurse and now serve as a Band 6 Senior Clinical Lead in Endoscopy at ABUHB.

A highly motivated, forward-thinking individual, I have a strong passion for the education and development of the endoscopy workforce. I support integrating technology into education, with a focus on the digital transformation of Endoscopy Nursing. My passion deepened as I explored ways to make learning more accessible for colleagues, which motivated me to innovate training with online learning systems.

With over four years of experience, I lead endoscopy induction programs, ensuring staff meet JETS Workforce standards. In addition to my clinical work, I actively advocate for IENs, particularly from the Philippines, promoting equity and professional growth. I played a key role in organizing the PNA-UK (Philippine Nurses Association UK) launch in Wales, furthering my commitment to advancing opportunities for IENs in the UK.

I was honored to receive the PNAUK Highly Commended Award for Excellence in Nursing and Midwifery in 2024, as well as the WAGE Bursary Award in 2023. My focus remains on fostering continuous learning, innovation, and improving patient care in the ever-evolving field of endoscopy.
