Eugene has extensive experience in cardiovascular health as a clinician, educator, health promotion professional, improvement advisor and quality improvement lead for statewide heart health initiatives.
As a registered nurse, Eugene began his acute experience in tertiary hospitals in Cardiothoracic surgery and Cardiology, before moving to a rewarding role as a heart failure nurse with the Hospital Admission Risk Program supporting Victorians to manage their heart health and live well at home.
After a decade of clinical acute care, Eugene transitioned to health promotion, where he led national patient support programs for the Heart Foundation. Four years later, Eugene moved into quality improvement and program management at Safer Care Victoria where he managed a team to design, deliver and evaluate six cardiovascular projects in over 29 hospitals. Projects Eugene has led have focussed on secondary prevention, digital health, reducing unplanned readmissions, and bringing high quality cardiac care closer to home for regional patients.
Eugene is passionate about heart health, equity, and supporting and coaching clinicians to provide better high-quality care for Australians. Outside of work, Eugene enjoys time with his family with two energetic young sons, philosophy, running and travel.
