Dietetics Clinical Educator
Specialty: Family Medicine
Jayne graduated from a Masters degree in Human Nutrition and Dietetics at the University of Sydney in 1994 and started her career in clinical roles in Australia and the UK. She then moved into non-clinical settings in a range of positions in NSW and QLD including health promotion, workplace health and professional support. In 2012 Jayne completed a Graduate Diploma in Teaching and Learning at UniSQ whilst working part time as the Dietetics Clinical Educator at Toowoomba Hospital. After working as a high school science teacher for 1 week, Jayne decided her skills were more suited to supporting student dietitians and their supervisors in the health service. In 2018 Jayne started in the part time position of Dietetics Clinical Educator for SQRH (Southern Queensland Rural Health), where she provides education for supervisors and acts as supervisor for students on placement in the Chronic Disease outpatient program at the Health and Wellness Clinic. Jayne has worked collaboratively with herself in the same part time role across the 2 organisations, Toowoomba Hospital and SQRH, for the past 8 years and finds great satisfaction in witnessing the learning outcomes of students and patients in both settings.
