Elizabeth Dabars

 

Elizabeth holds a strong passion to promote and advance the professional and industrial interests of nurses and midwives and Personal Care Assistants.

 

During her undergraduate years, Elizabeth worked as a Personal Care Assistant.  Once a Registered Nurse, she worked in both metropolitan and country health settings including acute and aged care.  On becoming increasingly concerned with a range of professional and workplace issues, she completed degrees in education and law.

 

Elizabeth has acted as an ANMF (SA Branch) Worksite Representative, Organiser, Industrial Officer and, since graduating from Law, a Nurse Solicitor with the ANMF (SA Branch) and Duncan Basheer Hannon, providing legal advice to many ANMF (SA Branch) members.

 

As Branch Secretary, Elizabeth aims to work with members to achieve the vision of the ANMF (SA Branch) to achieve professional and industrial outcomes worthy of our profession and to create the future that our members seek and so justly deserve.
