Kayla Austin-Forman

About

Hi Everyone my name is Kayla and I started at Student Health in January 2020 as a Practice Nurse. I am currently in the New Graduate Entry to Practice programme through Student Health and CCDHB and will be here Monday - Thursday for the rest of this year.

Alongside this, I will also be studying some post graduate papers to further my study/knowledge in and around nursing. I come from a line of nurses with my mum also being a registered nurse and my nana being in the health field also, so nursing was something I was kind of born into.

In my spare time I like to hang out with my family and friends, and also keeping fit and active where possible.

To me, being a nurse at Student Health is being welcoming and providing a safe and friendly environment to receive care in. I am super passionate about/my specialist areas are immunisations, contraception and sexual health. Youth health has always been something I have been passionate in and I am excited to be involved with Student Health this year.

I would love to be able to meet you all sometime soon!
