Amy Bowen RN

Amy Bowen is a self-employed Nurse Practitioner with an innovative model of care that combines the mindset and skill base of an Emergency Nurse Practitioner with an aged care specialist focus. This model of practice has a strong foundation in the role of hospital avoidance and the delivery of service to the residents of five residential aged care facilities on the Northern Beaches. Amy has been an RN for 25 years with a background of 15 years in emergency at Mona Vale hospital as a clinical nurse specialist before going on to complete her nurse practitioner training.

Amy sits on the clinical council for the Sydney PHN, is involved in the implementation of clinical pathways, sits on various expert panels and committees and has been welcomed as a speaker at multiple conferences across Australia. Amy was lucky enough to receive the APNA Nurse of the Year award in 2016 for quality and innovative practice. Amy is passionate about hospital avoidance specialising in chronic and complex illness management, wound care, and palliative care. She is also a gushingly proud mummy to two children, Jack and Lexi, who are aged 4 and 5.
