Catherine Zeevaarder
Director, Clinical Services & Outcomes
Originally from Melbourne, where her family still lives, Catherine spent many years nursing in Victoria and South Australia before arriving in Perth just as Covid began.
Catherine became a Registered Nurse at the time of the HIV/AIDs epidemic in Australia, and this led her into infectious disease nursing and her strong position on preventative health care.
She is a keen adventurer and developed a passion for working in community settings after pivotal experiences in Nepal, living and working closely with communities on education and development projects.
Completing a Post Graduate Diploma in Social Science - International Development furthered Catherine's understanding of developing communities. Over the past 5 years she has worked in Aboriginal health in Perth, where she is focused on making a difference in Australia.
Since commencing as a Registered Nurse at Earbus Foundation in 2020, Catherine has been part of the Pilbara and Esperance outreach programs, taking on the role of Nurse Manager in 2022 and joining the Leadership Team at Earbus whilst continuing to deliver the Central and South Pilbara Programs. In April of 2023 Catherine stepped into the role of Director, Clinical Services & Outcomes.
