Kate Cogan’s Story
Kate has experience across both public and private tertiary health services, primary health, research and tertiary / university education services.
Kate is a Registered Nurse with post graduate qualifications in Mental Health Nursing, she is also a registered clinical family therapist, has post graduate studies in organisational management and has a Masters in Conflict Resolution. Kate’s previous management and clinical experience and qualifications have been the foundation to her current leadership role at Outcome Health.
Kate established the MHNI Program in the Eastern Region of Melbourne with the highest GP uptake in the Nation, and also set up the “world first” Ambulance triage service for Mental Health across the state of Victoria. This service has grown since inception with an 85% average downgrade, and in late December 2024 our team took it’s 100,000th call!
Kate is also a credentialing reviewer for the RACMHN.
