Biography
My background is in community pharmacy, aged care medication reviews and academia. I am primarily a quantitative researcher whose PhD project entailed a clinical and economic evaluation of the Home Medicines Review (HMR) program. In addition to my responsibilities as the Director of Western Australian Dementia Training Study Centre, I maintain a clinical medication review consultancy in aged care facilities across WA and Tasmania. My primary research and clinical interests involve ways to optimise medication use, particularly in older people, with a focus on quality of life and patient-centred care.
