With 33 years as a Registered Nurse, Gail brings a wealth of nursing, disability and care management experience to the Newcastle and Hunter Community Health team.
Gail spent 20 years at Stockton Centre, supporting people with disability as a Registered Nurse, while also regularly stepping into relieving management roles. She then broadened her clinical experience at Rankin Park, working for 12 months in rehabilitation on North Ward.
Her career has also included working as a Registered Nurse and Care Manager across residential aged care and home care, including with Harbourside Home Care. Over the years, Gail has developed a real passion for supporting people to remain as independent as possible while receiving care that is respectful, practical and centred around what matters to them.
When she’s not working, Gail loves to travel, whether that means heading off on an overseas adventure or hitting the road in her motorhome to explore somewhere new.
At home, there’s also Simba, her Ragdoll cat, who no doubt considers himself the real manager of the household!
After more than three decades in nursing, Gail still enjoys making a difference in people’s lives — and when she’s not doing that, chances are she’s planning the next motorhome trip!
