Biography

Arlene Parry

MEd (International Education), RN, Grad Cert Critical Care Nursing

Clinical Coordinator, Peninsula & Berwick campus

Lecturer

I moved to Australia in 2002 after having worked as an Intensive Care nurse in Scotland for 10 years, and have continued to work in this area both in regional and Metropolitan settings.

I joined Monash in 2004 as a casual lecturer with the School of Health Sciences teaching anatomy and physiology, then moved to Melbourne University to teach in the clinical labs for the School of Nursing and Social Work.

I returned to Monash University in 2008 as Lecturer/Clinical Coordinator. I developed the online Short Course in Human Biology for the School and participate in research both in the acute and community nursing setting.

My main role is Coordination, Leadership and management of the clinical components of the following Degrees; BN, BMID, BN (CH) and BN/BEH.

I also teach into the Year 2 Acute subjects across both semesters.

My research interests are in the Critical care/ED environment and in student nurse placements in the community setting.
