Ellen Kerrins, Secretary

Ellen Kerrins experience working with the development of the local Cancer Voices organisation confirmed the need to establish independent advocacy groups for consumers. Ellen is committed to improving the pathway for consumers to become more literate and assertive in making good health decisions with their health care professional: expert to expert.
Currently, Ellen is on the Board of Helping Hand Aged Care and has previously been on the board of the Cancer Care Centre. Ellen has had previous experience in the development of the Statewide Cancer Control Plan and served on the SA Health Cervix and Breast Screening board and advisory groups.
Currently, Ellen is working closely with the development of GP Plus Health Care Centres and Super Clinics and has a good understanding of the development of the State Clinical Networks.
Ellen strongly believes that being engaged with what your stakeholders and or consumers are thinking and needing is the ultimate strength of an organisation. The challenge is to gather this information in a timely and representative way and then convert it into useful policy and services.
