🚙 Taking the road less travelled is second nature to Lucy, a Metro North nurse who has had several rural and regional postings since starting her career 14 years ago.
Having spent time in rural Queensland and more recently, as a flight nurse for the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS), Lucy has a deep appreciation for patients who are thousands of kilometres away from their closest healthcare facility.
"Working in Mount Isa maternity and emergency opened my eyes to the challenges and rewards of rural health care," Lucy said.
"The skills I learnt there allowed me to fulfil my dream of working with the RFDS. It was an incredible experience combining my love for nursing, travel, aviation, and sunsets."
Lucy is settling back into SEQ life as a Clinical Nurse Consultant in Caboolture Hospital Emergency Department, where she hopes to combine her passion for midwifery and emergency nursing to improve care for women now and into the future. 🤰💗
"The challenges of caring for high-risk obstetric cases and critically ill patients have helped me appreciate the broad skills, resilience, and adaptability of rural and remote health professionals."
Lucy is one of the many nurses and other healthcare professionals who bring a diverse range of skills and experiences to Metro North Health.
Thank you everyone! Wow, feeling very overwhelmed with love and appreciation. I am very lucky to do what I love with so many amazing people (both past and present) 🥰

Visitors to Caboolture Hospital may notice a special artefact on display next time they enter the facility.
The Dhoeri Headdress was crafted by Torres Strait Islander artist Thomas Pedro in 2022 to mark the 30th anniversary of the High Court's Mabo Decision, which overturned the concept that Australia was terra nullius - land belonging to no one - at the time of British colonisation.
Having spent the last 3 years in the Cairns Art Gallery, the headdress arrives at its new home in time for NAIDOC Week, with the help of the Caboolture Hospital Redevelopment Project.
Cultural Capability Officer, Janita explains the significance of the headdress.
"The headdress and other artefacts promote connection with Torres Strait Islander patients, visitors and community when attending the hospital," she said.
"It's a reminder to ask the question, 'Are you of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander origin?' to ensure we are providing culturally safe and appropriate care for those who need it."
2025 is the 50th year of NAIDOC Week, which continues until 13 July.
Happy NADOC week to all in our world 🌎. Cultural competence is a human right ✅️ ❤️.
That's wonderful -
Hey Jacinta, great to see your face. Happy NAIDOC week from me and Nat. That’s an awesome headpiece ❤️ Respect ✊
