Profile
I am a paediatric nurse with over 12 years of experience working with children and families with complex needs in hospitals and in the community.
I am passionate about ensuring the children and families with whom I work receive the care and support that they need. I am very aware of the additional demands on families of having a child with additional needs and always work hard to ensure their views are heard.
As a paediatric Case Manager I am committed to ensuring every child has the opportunity to reach their potential by ensuring they have the appropriate team to enable this.
