Meet Hannah Bisignano, ANUM Team Lead of the Ash Team in Antenatal Clinic.
Q: First, let’s start with your coffee order
I love a large latte to fuel my caffeine addiction.
Q: Tell us about your role at Northern Health
I am the ANUM Team Lead of the Ash Team in Antenatal Clinic. On a Wednesday, at Craigieburn Community Hospital, the Ash Team provides a midwifery-led model of care. My wonderful team of midwives empower families through their pregnancy journey with education, continuity of care and a safe place for open discussions.
On Thursdays, at Northern Hospital Epping, our Obstetric and Midwifery Team work together with Maternal Fetal Medicine, Genetics Counseling and our OPAL clinics to provide individually tailored care for complex pregnancies.
Q: What do you enjoy most about your work?
My favourite part of my job is facilitating a growth driven environment. I am very passionate about empowering people. Whether that is through educating and encouraging patients or supporting and upskilling staff.
Q: How do you resonate with Northern Health’s values of Safe, Kind and Together?
We are always striving to uphold Northern Health’s values. The structure of our care model perfectly demonstrates working together to create a safe environment for all. And a key aspect to achieving this is through using open and kind communication with all involved in the pregnancy, birthing and postpartum experience.
Q: Favourite place to travel and why?
My favourite place that I’ve ever travelled is Venice. I love the romanticism and architecture within the city. As well as being surrounded by water.
Q: If you could have dinner with anyone, living or dead, real or imaginary, who would it be and why?
I would have dinner with my favourite musician, Vessel. He is the lead vocalist of Sleep Token and I find their music haunting. I would love to discuss the bands lore, musical processes and inspiration.
