After qualifying, Dr Bayly worked in a variety of clinical posts before taking up a specialist role in palliative care at a Hospice in North Liverpool from 1996-2015.

During her PhD research, Dr Bayly developed and tested a model of short-term rehabilitation for people with newly diagnosed lung cancer or mesothelioma in a randomised controlled feasibility trial.  Her post-doctoral research interests include models of care for people living with advanced disease and multi-morbidity with a focus on rehabilitation in palliative care.
