Rebekah Richards
BN GDipOnc MNPract
Pain Management Nurse Practitioner
Rebekah has been a part of the team at PainMedSA since 2018. With post graduate qualifications in Oncology & Haematology, Rebekah’s special interests were in chronic malignant pain and cancer survivorship.
Under the guidance of Dr Matthew Green, Rebekah successfully completed her Masters of Nurse Practitioner in 2020, and has since extended her special interests to include neuromodulation and medication management. Since her transition to an independent role, Rebekah’s qualifications have allowed us to build on the services we currently provide here at PainMedSA through dedicated patient education sessions, offering increased supports for patients through any phase of their pain journey, and by bridging the gap between specialist and primary healthcare.
Rebekah currently splits her time between dedicated patient consults, post-operative patient management, clinical research and teaching / supporting the next generation of Nurses.
