馮博士具備四十年跨領域多樣化的專業經驗：包括護士、長者護理行政管理及諮詢工作，兼顧臨床及高等教育教學。在護理長者行業中，她致力於全人關顧，倡導滿足長者生理、心理、社群、情緒和精神上整體的需要。馮博士不久前以行政總裁身份幫助建立『展望家居全人服務』，現任該機構的首席執行理事，目標是專以澳洲華人通用的語言來關顧他們。馮博士熱衷於培訓更多華語護老人員，滿足與日俱增的澳洲華人安老服務需求。

‍

Nancy brings a diverse array of experience to this role. Her 40-year career spans across varied fields including nursing, aged care management/consulting, and teaching in both clinical and tertiary settings. She has a particular interest in providing and advocating for holistic care in the aged care sector, catering to the physical, psychological, social, emotional, and spiritual needs of older people. Nancy recently helped establish Hope Holistic Care as an at-home aged care service, as CEO, now COO, particularly focused on caring for Chinese Australians in their language of choice. She is passionate about training more aged care workers with Chinese linguistic skills, in order to better serve the growing demand for aged care of Chinese Australians.

Nancy began her career as a nurse in the aged care sector. Her passion for aged care saw her pursue addition training in gerontology, including eventually co-ordinating and lecturing in gerontology/geriatric nursing courses at both Cumberland College of Health Sciences and Australian Catholic University.

Nancy recognised a gap in the aged care sector’s ability to care for Chinese Australians and so sought to better cater to the diverse needs of this demographic. As such, she helped establish and manage several residential aged care homes tailored to this demographic. Nancy was nominated for Excellence in Aged Care in the category of Professional Development.

In addition, Nancy also has a deep passion for theology. She has been extensive ly involved in education and pastoral care through various Christian organisations. Nancy is qualified with Master of Theology and completed her PhD through Biola University, focusing on the use of problem-based learning in theological education.
