With over 10 years of experience working in the aged care sector myself, I am committed to providing high-quality education and support to students that will prepare them to go on to successful careers in the rewarding field of individual support.

George Mierau

I have worked as an Aged Care trainer with Camden Haven Community College now for 3 years.

I have over 40 years nursing experience as a Registered Nurse, the last 13 years of those being in the aged care sector.

I very much enjoy training and imparting my knowledge and experience to the next generation of aged care workers.

I have been a Registered Nurse for the past 40 years, and have worked in clinical and rehab aged care for the past 20 years.

I continue to work in clinical care, aged care, and in Training and Assessing at Camden Haven College, where I enjoy watching people develop and become confident and competent in their chosen fields.

Kylie Brittliffe

I have worked in Social Services for over 12 years, supporting young people as they navigate and enter independent life after exiting the Forster Care system.

After caring for a family member following an accident, I was inspired to complete further study in the ageing and disability fields and achieved my longstanding goal of obtaining my Cert III in Individual Support and Cert IV in Disability. I went on to work as a support worker where I learnt valuable skills, especially through completing work placements, and had many rewarding experiences. I hope to provide a nurturing teaching environment which encourages our future support workers to learn the skills they need to go on and provide premium care to vulnerable people in our community.
