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:
RPU will be 'out in force' to stop drink and drug drivers
Ramsey Commissioners to spend more than £8k on deckchairs and storage unit
How to spot the signs of domestic and elder abuse this Christmas
Police appeal to parents after party of up to 50 young people 'becomes an issue'
