I worked in Elsternwick Private hospital as a registered nurse specialised in Parkinson’s Disease and orthopaedic rehabilitation. One of the main part I enjoyed in rehabilitation setting beside clinical practices is patient and family education which I am passionate about. It empowers patient to have more control of their own health and life by encouragement and educate them about medications and safe use of health devices. eg. Apomine pump, CADD pump, Elastomeric pump, kangaroo pump, DBS stimulator.
