Prior to joining Whittington, he trained as a non-medical prescriber at Royal Free Hospital. Since joining the Whittington, Shay has helped set up and expand the OPAT/COpAT service, including implementation of nurse-filled elastomerics and setting up novel pathways across virtual wards. He has led on the development of Whittington Health’s first automated Power BI dashboard, designed to monitor OPAT service performance, antimicrobial stewardship, and key safety indicators. This innovative project has earned the OPAT team nominations for the 2025 UKHSA Antibiotic Guardian Awards and the 2025 HSJ Digital Awards. His research includes safe and effective use of elastomerics in the community and the impact of advanced practitioner roles in infection/OPAT settings. Shay’s interests include advancing clinical pharmacist roles in infection, AMR and Health Analytics.
