BIO

As a dedicated Critical Care Registered Nurse with experience in cardiac care, ICU, and outpatient settings, I am committed to providing best practice to those with cardiovascular conditions. I have gained extensive experience in managing patients with heart disease, post-operative cardiac recovery, and supporting their health management in the community.

 

I am passionate about nursing education and currently serve as a Lecturer in Nursing. In this role, I guide and mentor future nurses, teaching them fundamental skills, patient assessments, and the importance of health promotion. I also strive to instill the values of person-centered care, compassion, respect and effective communication in my students, preparing them to deliver high-quality care that prioritises the needs and preferences of patients.
