Shauna (Founder)
A Vision Takes Root
As a Clinical Nurse Consultant, Shauna observed a pressing need for routine nursing care among NDIS patients. The challenges they faced, from long waiting periods for GP appointments to ineligibility for QLD health community nursing, motivated Shauna to make a difference.
Bridging Healthcare Gaps
In 2021, Shauna took a bold step and founded Clinicare QLD to cater specifically to NDIS participants in need of community nursing. Clinicare QLD is committed to providing essential care services to those who need it the most and is now an NDIS registered provider.
