The GWHCC would like to introduce you to our newest team member!

Hello Goldfields, my name is Kate Yates I am the new Regional Carers Coordinator, I will be supporting our Goldfields carers navigate The Carer Gateway. Carer Gateway is an Australian Government program providing free services and support for carers.

Are you a carer? If you care for a family member or friend with a disability, a medical condition, mental illness, or who is frail due to age, then you are a Carer. Please fell free to make an appt and we can talk about your caring role.

I am passionate and motivated about client advocacy. I have worked in health for 23 years; my nursing career guided me to Aged care where my basic foundations and skill base began. Moving to Kalgoorlie & working at the hospital opened my eyes to culture & diversity. This experience and exposure to the grand Goldfields has enriched my understanding and scope of what it is like to live in the Goldfields. After 8 years at the hospital, I took a left turn into complimentary health, studying an Advanced Diploma in Kinesiology and became Yoga teacher.

When I’m not at working you will find me with my Horse Mr DJ, we are currently working together to learn dressage. You will see me practising yoga Yoga 202 of course. I love learning so I’ll always be completing whatever course my little heart desires.I’m a 2-dog owner, I love coffee - I enjoy sitting quietly and enjoying the smell, the taste, yum!! Ill do anything for a good coffee hint, hint, wink, wink & I love a great podcast recommendation or a great audiobook,

The things I love most in life are music. I believe life should be a musical, great food as long as I’m not cooking and good hearty laughs. All three of these in one day is my ideal day.
