'Growing up as a proud Torres Strait Islander, I always felt a deep connection to my community and a strong desire to give back.' ❤️⁣
⁣
For Katrina, being a midwife is more than a job—it's a calling.⁣
⁣
She says it's a privilege and honour to support the women and families of Thursday Island through their pregnancies and births. 🤗⁣
⁣
'I’m passionate about making sure they feel safe, understood and respected during their maternity journey,' Katrina said.⁣
⁣
'For me, it’s not just about delivering care—it’s about creating an environment where women feel empowered and culturally comfortable.'⁣
⁣
Katrina is especially passionate about supporting local women through the challenges they face, from navigating unfamiliar medical procedures and language barriers to understanding health education and policies.⁣
⁣
Thank you for being such a support to your community, Katrina! 🥰⁣
