Author name: Stevan Bruijns

I have been a qualified emergency physician since 2008 and was one of the first doctors to hold a degree in Emergency Medicine in South Africa. I am dual registered as a specialist in South Africa and the United Kingdom. My interests include quality improvement, as well as social equality and research access in African low-resourced settings. This has formed the basis of many previous projects I have led, notably as part of the design team of the South African Triage Scale, chief editor of the African Journal of Emergency Medicine, and various systems design work. More recently I've been involved in data translation, system design and improvement, specifically in NHS regional and national urgent an emergency care. I am a person of action and like for things I do to be useful to others. This is strongly reflected in my outputs. I have a strong sense of purpose that greatly influences my desire to improve the world around me. I have worked in both resource-rich and resource-poor settings. I have used this shared experience to shape my worldview. I am married and we have two children which we home school. We also have a cat, dog and two very naughty chickens that like to raid the vegetable patch.
