What is your passion in the industry?
To leave the country in a healthier state than when I started, and help train the next generation of staff.
What makes you get out of bed every day?
To be a role model for my team and family, the opportunity to develop young co-workers, to learn something new every day along with the rewards of accomplishment at the end of every day.
Dennis and his wife Karen (an enrolled nurse who works at the Blackall hospital) have two adult children, Aimee and Mitchell, who both have young families of their own.
