Karen knew she wanted to be a social worker from a young age and has spent a career focusing on children and adolescents.

Now, as Director of Operations – Clinical Transformation at Oxygen, Karen supports and enables the integration and efficiency of clinical services, programs and projects to deliver successful outcomes, in both an operational and strategic capacity. 

In this episode, Karen touches on life as a social worker, and why it’s important to employ self-resilience and self-care whilst taking care of other people in times of need. We also speak about the challenges facing the sector right now, where the current areas of improvement lie and why collaboration is so important.
