I have worked as a HCA at Saintbridge Surgery since 2004.My role as HCA includes taking blood, chronic disease checks, dressings, INR testing , assisting with minor operations and women’s health clinics. I cycle to work and enjoy spending time with my grandchildren.

Kay Confaloni

I have worked for the NHS for over 30 years, starting my career at Cheltenham General Hospital working as a Health Care Assistant on the cardiac unit. I spent 17 very happy years there and coronary care became my passion. I then moved to Barnwood Medical Practice and have been with them since 2004. I love my holidays with my husband and family. We have two sons and three beautiful grandchildren. I particularly enjoy minor operations clinics which we do every Monday at the Aspen Centre. I’m very fortunate to work with a great team of nurses.

I grew up in Malaysia. I married an English man and have lived in the UK for nearly 20 years. I spent a year studying in Canada and completed my Bsc in Psychology from the University of Gloucestershire.
Some patients call me “vampire lady” and ask me “How many tubes do you need for today?” I tell them “Only two tubes are needed, which will be enough to last me for the day.” Hopefully, it makes the blood drawing process a bit more bearable and easier.
