Rural Outreach Mental Health Service

Hi, I’m Ann

Credentialed Mental Health Nurse, I have been nursing in the Shoalhaven since 1979 and am aware of the changing mental health needs of our population.  I am passionate about working with people to help them achieve their goals and our program enables them to progress in their recovery.  I have been working with this program since October 2008 and work on a part-time basis.  My special interests are Drug & Alcohol, Mental Health, Postnatal Depression and Loss and grief.

Hi, I’m Nicola

I’m a credentialed mental health nurse, originally from the UK. I have been working in the Shoalhaven for 3 years supporting members of our community on their road to mental health recovery. I live locally and recognise the barriers for those in our community in accessing support from services. It is my goal as part of the Rural Outreach mental health service, to provide accessible mental health care to all those in need.
