The Karen Walsh Memorial Grant for ANZUNS ASM
Karen Walsh began her Urology Nurse career at the Royal Brisbane Hospital in the early 1990s and worked for over 30 years in various urology units around Brisbane. She combined studying, working and raising teenagers as a mature-aged student to gain her Masters (NP) degree, and most recently worked in a unique role as a Nurse Practitioner/Robotic Assistant at both St Vincent’s Northside and Metro North’s Surgical Treatment and Rehabilitation Service (STARS). Known as ‘Walshie’ by most of her colleagues, her fun loving and bubbly personality put patients’ minds at ease on the day of surgery. Her goal was to continue to grow the urology services and had a vision to run NP post-operative services to alleviate the strain on the surgeons she assisted.
