Chandler Rieck, Broken Hill Midwifery Group Practice midwife, was awarded the FWLHD Midwife of the Year.
Chandler was nominated by several colleagues as a skilled, caring and passionate midwife dedicated to providing excellent women-centred care who builds relationships with families to ensure they feel safe and well cared for during their pregnancy, birth and postnatal period.
Chandler’s fellow workers said she fosters a positive workplace culture and supports, educates and provides assistance to junior midwives to ensure all staff feel safe and well equipped to deliver great midwifery care to each woman they care for.
Chandler will now be nominated in the NSW Health Excellence in Nursing and Midwifery Awards to be announced in Sydney later this year.
