Staff Spotlight Supporting her local community
Brandii has recently started as an Assistant in Midwifery at the Mount Isa Hospital - the first position of its kind within our health service! Brandii has been taking observations for women during antenatal appointments, supporting mums and bubs after birth with showering or breastfeeding and helping out wherever she is needed.
Brandii has recently been accepted to study a Bachelor of Midwifery with goals to successfully complete her degree and support her beloved Mount Isa, Cloncurry and surrounding communities.
"To be doing this in my hometown and my community feels really special. I am so proud to be a woman and share these intimate moments with new families and work as part of a really amazing team who share the same passion," she said.
"I'm looking forward to continuing to listen to our community and provide a supportive and accessible service to our mob living rurally."
