Alec managed the design and implementation of Chronic Disease Management programs for an international pharmaceutical company which helped people with ongoing conditions to self manage their care and prevent them from getting worse. This ignited and subsequently grew his passion for the healthcare field and working to make a difference in people’s lives. His own parents and parents-in-law are now in retirement and needing supplementary in home care. His father, in pursuit of his own purpose in retirement, has qualified as a PCA and provides in-home care to other elderly. Having personally grappled with the challenges of ageing parents, the desires to live at home with meaning and purpose, Alec wants to directly help others through these uncharted waters to make a true difference to lives.
More recently, Debbie has returned to working in the community, to resume the role she is passionate about looking after the elderly in our community. She keeps her nursing skills updated with ongoing professional development focusing on dementia, wound care, medication management and palliative care.
Debbie enjoys the interaction with the clients and is looking forward to building relationships with each on a personal level in order to deliver the best nursing care.
