Our Team

Rachel manages the day-to-day operations of Hobart’s Emergency Department, overseeing everything from rostering and travel logistics to accommodation arrangements for doctors and billing processes. With a strong focus on efficiency and team coordination, she plays a key role in ensuring the department runs smoothly. Before joining the Peha team, Rachel spent nine years at Hobart Private, where she built a solid foundation in healthcare operations. Rachel greets each team member with a warm “Good morning,” often reminding them, “It’s not how you finished yesterday, but how you start today that can make all the difference. If we can help just one person begin their day on a better note, it’s worth it.”
