Meet Camille Meredith, Effectiveness and Outcomes Manager – CLEO, Northern Health.
Q: First, let’s start with your coffee order.
A: Flat white or piccolo.
Q: Tell us about your journey at Northern Health?
A: I started my career in 2013 as an acute Speech Pathologist in Adelaide, specialising in stroke and neurology. In 2017, I made the move to Melbourne to join Northern Health and make the most of the lifestyle.
Since then, my career has taken a pathway that resembles a ‘squiggly line’. Leading up to COVID, and thanks to some amazing mentors at Northern Health, I found myself increasingly fascinated by health informatics and health system design. Particularly, how data and digital tools can drive better care for patients and improve staff workflows. Thanks to this curiosity and few nudges from people around me, I took the leap to step outside of clinical – first as the Allied Health Informatics Officer then as the EMR Allied Health Analyst.
Following these roles and after completing the University of Melbourne’s Learning Health Systems Fellowship, I transitioned into my current position as Effectiveness and Outcomes Manager with the Clinical Leadership Effectiveness and Outcomes (CLEO) team.
Q: What is the best part of working at Northern Health?
A: The best part of working at Northern Health is being part of a team that is committed to transforming how healthcare is delivered, open to new ideas and encourages change. I’m able to combine my skills and passion for clinical care, health informatics and innovation to help the organisation shift towards value-based healthcare. I also have the opportunity to work with diverse stakeholders including patients, clinicians, administrative staff, and digital health experts at Northern Health and beyond.
Q: Tell us one thing not many people know about you?
A: During COVID, I decided I was officially old enough to take up knitting. The results are questionable, but I’m enthusiastic and my friends and family continue to accept my creations.
Q: Favourite place to travel and why?
A: The Slovenian Alps near Triglav National Park are hard to beat. The hiking is incredible, the Soca river is great for kayaking, and the local wine is fantastic.
