The loss of Kim, a cherished member of the UOW School of Nursing and beyond, leaves an indelible mark on our hearts and our profession. Known for her passionate dedication to nursing education, Kim was a cornerstone in shaping the future of nursing students. Her innovative contributions, particularly in clinical education, have profoundly impacted the way nursing is taught and practised.

Kim's legacy is evident in her remarkable work in redesigning clinical assessments and creating the Assessment Workbooks, which earned acclaim for their effectiveness in bridging theoretical knowledge with clinical practice. Her advocacy for students went beyond academic realms; she was a mentor and a guiding force, deeply invested in their growth and success.

Her PhD research, focusing on enhancing learning opportunities for students in clinical settings, reflects her commitment to not just educating, but elevating the standards of nursing care.
