With over 30 years of Clinical experience and a passion for helping others I love the challenge of changing the culture of health, safety and wellness within organisations. By combining my knowledge and incorporating the expertise of our Senior Consultant Cheryl in health and safety, we are able to offer not only resources specific to clinical businesses, but also consultancy, education and wellness across a broad range of organisations.
Always looking to improve, I am currently working on a degree in population health at the University of Waikato, doing Health promotion in the community and presenting health and safety focused workshops, training and education.
2020 and the spread of Covid19 changed the world and how many of us see ourselves in it. It has created anxiety and uncertainty for many and that has affected how people cope, and the demand for mental health services. At PracticeSafe we have developed an online course to assist people with well-being and early intervention skills that will not only improve the workplace, but have a ripple effect across personal relationships as well.
