Meet Angel, a passionate Health Care Worker with the Redcliffe Ngarrama Maternity Program. 👋
“I love connecting, yarning, learning, supporting, and watching our families build strong and deadly families".
Angel is also excited about some new changes and improvements coming soon to the Ngarrama service at Redcliffe.
“Ngarrama is about healthcare, culture, community, and connection,” Angel said.
The improvements mean Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families will receive full continuity of care from the same dedicated team every step of their pregnancy journey—from antenatal to birth and postnatal care. 👶🏽
We’ll be offering Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families care that’s tailored to their unique needs, honouring their traditions, and ensuring they feel supported and safe every step of the way.
Metro North Health is looking for passionate midwives to work with Angel and the Ngarrama group. Find out more 👉 smartjobs.qld.gov.au/jobs/QLD-RD626201
