💜 Torie’s impact continues to fly across remote NSW.
We’ve recently been reminded that the impact of one person’s care and mentorship can travel and truly matter.
Meet Kathryn Hines, a midwife and flight nurse with the Royal Flying Doctor Service, based in Broken Hill.
Kathryn undertook her midwifery studies in Orange and credits Torie Finnane as her mentor. Today, Kathryn supports women, babies and families across some of the most remote parts of NSW, bringing vital care to communities where distance can make all the difference.
During her travels across the state, TFF board member and Chief Midwife, Donna Garland, had the pleasure of meeting Kathryn and hearing about her connection to Torie.
There is something incredibly special about knowing that the knowledge, kindness and mentorship Torie shared continues to travel across our state through the midwives she inspired.
Torie’s impact lives on in the people she inspired, the care they provide and the families they support. 💜
