Star of the Week – Jilly Croasdale

March 15, 2021

Our Star of the Week this week is Jilly Croasdale, Head of Radiopharmacy and Associate Director Healthcare Science.

Jilly has been recognised for going the extra mile and being caring and kind. Velindre Cancer Centre, Cardiff, had 10 patients urgently requiring scans prior to treatment. The Cardiff radiopharmacy centre developed electrical problems the afternoon prior to these scans and so could not produce radiopharmaceuticals the next morning. Other closer centres were unable to help with radiopharmaceuticals. In desperation, they contacted Jilly who immediately agreed to help and was able to arrange delivery for the next morning with our transport department. All patient doses arrived not much later than they normally get them from Cardiff and all patients had their scans. The Velindre Cancer Centre were incredibly grateful for this effort by our radiopharmacy team and Jilly in particular.
