    Meet our newest returning member, Bríd Phillips.

    Bríd is an emergency nurse by background. Working in this dynamic environment, she first became interested in health professions education acting in various roles supporting nursing colleagues. During this time, she also became interested in the humanities and how this supports a holistic approach to care. Since completing her PhD in Shakespearean Studies and the History of Emotions, she has worked in a variety of academic roles including lecturing in health professions education, health humanities, and nursing. During this time she completed her Graduate Certificate in Tertiary Teaching.

    Welcome to one of our newest members, Jane Dow.

    Jane has a clinical background as a physiotherapist over 13 years experience. Jane's health education journey began when supervising undergraduate physiotherapy students as a clinician working predominantly in neurology, then student coordinator, teaching and mentoring roles at Barwon Health for physiotherapy and junior medical interns. Electing to study units in evidenced based practice, quality improvement framework, design, and implementation as a part of the completion of a Graduate Certificate in Burns and Trauma Rehabilitation (University of Notre Dame, WA), complimented Jane's passion for education, by striving for the delivery of high value healthcare.

    "Currently as the Clinical Director at Allied Therapy Services I bring my health education skills to support the Clinical Lead Team who support our therapists across Regional Victoria. Last year we developed our undergraduate student program and are excited to grow this in the future.

    I have also worked in higher education over the past 5 years, as a regular sessional facilitator at Deakin University for their Collaborative Practice in Healthcare Unit and at the Australian Catholic University in various roles. I really get a kick out of being involved with undergraduate teaching, and passionate about setting up students for success as they transition from university to the healthcare workforce. I particularly enjoy facilitating interprofessional education and collaborative practice.

    There are some wonderful ANZAHPE members I have met and up-skilling sessions I undertook last year. This year I decided to become a member to expand my networks, feed my passion for healthcare education and continue to learn from the great resources available."

    Meet one of our 2024 Local Conference Champions, Dr Svetlana King.

    "I entered the wonderful world of HPE in 2014, initially as a research centre manager in a professional role. Previously, I had worked in pre-service teacher education after completing a double degree (Bachelor of Education (Secondary)/Bachelor of Arts), and Honours and a PhD in education. A few years into working in HPE, my role was converted to an academic position which I have held since 2017.

    Since that time, I’ve become increasingly intrigued by the depth and breadth of research and scholarly topics in HPE. ANZAHPE has fuelled this intrigue, facilitating opportunities to become more engaged with the community of health professions educators across Australia and New Zealand.

    I became involved with ANZAHPE after attending my first conference in 2015 – in Adelaide. I feel as though I’ve come full circle, with the ANZAHPE conference being held in Adelaide in 2024 – this time, as part of the local committee! I’m really enjoying the opportunity to work alongside colleagues across the three South Australian universities and being able to make a small contribution to a community that made me feel so welcome all those years ago. I look forward to welcoming you all to our wonderful city!"
