Hello! My name is Rhiannon. I am The Surgi Nurse. I am a registered nurse and nurse unit manager of an orthopaedic ward in sunny Queensland. I made the decision to become a nurse towards the end of high school. I had always been told how caring and empathetic I was and, family helped me decide. It was when my grandad passed away from lung cancer, and my grandma was diagnosed with Huntington’s Disease that I knew I wanted to help people.

My aim, as The Surgi Nurse, is to challenge, inspire and empower all nurses to achieve their goals and explore their careers. I can promote an environment that is supportive and nurturing to develop confidence, provide guidance, motivation, emotional support and role-modelling.

I would love to work with you as your mentor, coach, teacher and supporter!
