When we talk about clinical excellence at Komplex Care, we don’t speak in hypotheticals. we look to the leadership of Debra Pease, our Managing Director.
Already recognised nationally with the prestigious Queen’s Nurse title, Debra’s outstanding contribution to community healthcare has now been acknowledged locally too, with a personal invitation to afternoon tea where she was honoured with a Certificate of Congratulations by the Mayor of Leeds.
This moment wasn’t just ceremonial. It was a powerful reflection of the real-world impact Debra continues to make, not only within Komplex Care, but across the wider healthcare system.
With more than 35 years of nursing experience, Debra’s career spans high-acuity nursing in hospital settings, community care, and senior roles in health governance, including her most recent position as Deputy Director of Nursing for an Integrated Care Board (ICB).
What makes Debra stand out isn’t just her clinical background, it’s her deep understanding of commissioning and how services work on the ground. She brings a rare combination of insight, integrity, and practical leadership that’s increasingly vital in today’s evolving health and care landscape.
Now, as Managing Director of Komplex Care, Debra leads from the front, shaping nurse-led care models that are fully clinically governed, bespoke to individual needs, and deeply rooted in community values.
The Queen’s Nurse Recognition
Awarded by the Queen’s Nursing Institute (QNI), the Queen’s Nurse title is a mark of excellence in community nursing, reserved for those who demonstrate exceptional standards of care, leadership, and commitment to learning and development.
Debra’s recognition followed a rigorous application process supported by testimonials from both patients and colleagues. Her passion for improving standards and championing person-centred care stood out.
As Debra shared at the time:
“I am so very proud and honoured to have received the title of Queen’s Nurse in recognition of my commitment to improving standards of care in the community and to learning and leadership.”
At Komplex Care, we are privileged to have Debra’s expertise and leadership guiding our teams. Her recognition as a Queen’s Nurse reflects the values we always uphold, delivering outstanding, compassionate care.
