Nurse Clare believes in experience and expertise
A candidate who's standing for Douglas East in this year's general election has listed improving the Island's healthcare system among her top priorities.
Clare Bettison, who's a registered nurse, says her background has given her a nuanced experience of the challenges facing hospitals, patients and staff Island-wide.
The 32-year-old believes there are efficiencies to be made in areas such as resource-saving and technological innovation.
But speaking on Manx Radio earlier, she denied her platform as a nurse has narrowed her political agenda:
More than 500 Isle of Man Energy customers overcharged for VAT
Police working with schools to teach children about the dangers of social media
Drivers turning in Douglas Fire Station forecourt leads to 'near misses'
