Janice, the fourth child in a family of seven, was born and raised in Brisbane, Queensland. At age 13 Janice’s passion for nursing was ignited through the personal experience of assisting with the nursing of her terminally ill mother until her passing two years later. This experience taught Janice, from this young age, the human side of caring for someone in their home along with the values of empathy and care.

Janice and her husband Bruce met in their teens, subsequently married and have two adult children, both following in their mothers’ footsteps in the field of health and education.

As a young woman Janice began her formal training in Nursing at the Royal Brisbane Hospital and thereafter spent 15 years as a medical representative, mostly in the field of neurology. Through her career she has gained:

Cert IV Medical Administration

Cert IV Disability Care

Cert IV Aged Care

DIP Med Rep Assoc

Dip Business Management

BA Occupational Therapy

Janice’s passion for helping people led to the establishment of Elan Medical Supplies in 1996. Elan Medical offers hire, sales and repairs of mobility equipment and is still successfully trading and enabling people to live at home with greater safety and comfort.

In her role as an Occupational Therapist, Janice offers education, assessments and assistance to educate you on the options that are available to you, or a loved one, through Government assisted goods and services. This gives you choice in your care at home, allowing you or your loved one to live at home forever.
