About Cathy Andrew

The Dedicated Education Unit: Canterbury Model was another initiative that transformed clinical teaching models in other organisations and increased the numbers of nursing graduates nationally.
Cathy supported the development of other health-related programmes in 艑tautahi Christchurch and further afield and led the introduction of a range of other programmes of study to grow health workforce capability.
Cathy鈥檚 career has spanned New Zealand, Australia, the UK and the South Pacific.
