Our team
A shared approach to implementation
The Murrumbidgee Living Well, Your Way implementation team is a cohesive team, underpinned by collective leadership. MLHD and MPHN team members have a strong shared identity, and work together across both organisations to deliver key initiatives.
Living Well, Your Way have adopted a unique, cross-organisational approach, bringing together team members from both MLHD and MPHN. This team have a sense of collective ownership and a shared vision that has fostered a strong partnership between the organisations. This collaboration has been instrumental to the effective implementation of the initiative. Having the opportunity to cohabitate space at both MLHD and MPHN sites has enabled more effective and efficient realisation of implementation activities.

As Senior Lead I support the development and implementation of the Murrumbidgee Collaborative Commissioning initiative Living Well, Your Way, aiming to address the gaps in patient care and embed local accountability to ensure care is truly integrated for patients.
