She is a Registered Nurse and Chair (Nursing) of the Monash Emergency Research Collaborative (MERC) at Monash Health. Lisa is an emergency nurse researcher who has 30 years of clinical, academic and research experience in emergency care.
Lisa’s primary aim and research focus are to ensure equity in early cardiovascular healthcare for women and underserved groups through generating and translating evidence into practice. This work has flowed on and evolved since research Lisa did during her PhD. She collaborates widely with emergency, cardiovascular and epidemiologist colleagues to increase access to evidence-based treatment for women’s heart disease, for which she has been asked to speak at numerous events including Heart Foundation and Women’s Health Victoria fora, Australian College of Critical Care Nurses Cardiac Seminars, in addition to nursing and medical conferences.
In her role at Monash University and Monash Health, Lisa is working with a range of talented colleagues in research leadership at the Victorian Heart Institute, where she is also the Co-Lead of the Women's Heart Health Grand Challenge. In addition, Lisa is conducting research related to opioid overdose interventions in the emergency department, family violence screening and response in the emergency department, and the emergency community’s response to COVID. She is also working in an Honorary position at Cabrini Health on a sponsor-funded project with Cabrini and Monash Art Design and Architecture colleagues to investigate the use of media-based distraction techniques to reduce the use of chemical and physical restraint for elderly patients who need emergency department care.
Lisa has received several peer-reviewed scientific awards, postgraduate scholarships and a postdoctoral research fellowship. She has served on an ethics committee, is a regular peer reviewer for international and national scientific journals and conferences, and has a growing track record in publications and attracting grant support.
