Professor Ian Peate's ability to produce scholarly publications and
conduct high quality research, together with his ability to
undertake and influence practice internationally, are renowned. The
route of scholarly activity evident in his publications list has
its genesis in the art and science of nursing with an emphasis on
improving health and promoting social justice. Caring for people
has become a prominent theme within his endeavors, embarked upon in
response to a number of criticisms from within and without the
nursing profession lamenting the perceived lack of caring in
nursing curricula. This approach to explicitly stating or outlining
the prominence of care and what this entails demonstrates his
commitment to the provision of high quality care with a sound
evidence base underpinning care delivery.
Ian currently edits The British Journal of Nursing an appointment
which, he says, allows him to contribute to establishing the tone
and editorial direction of the journal with the overall aim of
impacting on care delivery, and the education and preparation of
nursing students.
Ian has recently received the OBE for services to publishing and
has just been awarded a Fellowship of the Royal College of Nursing.
