Melissa Smith - Board MemberJudy.jpg

Melissa is a physiotherapist working in the Barossa Valley, having moved here 13 years ago from Eyre Peninsula. 

She has always worked in country SA, briefly at Port Lincoln Hospital but primarily in Eastern Eyre, based in Cleve and working both for the local health cluster and in her own private practice. In this time, she served on several committees, including school council, the local health cluster, Driver River Uniting Church worship and Sunday school committees and sporting committees. 

Working in country areas has meant that Melissa has always had a component of her services based in Aged Care. This continues in her current work at Barossa Physiotherapy, as well as providing physiotherapy services to the Kapunda Homes. 

She hopes that this clinical experience, plus family connections to Tanunda Lutheran Home, will be an asset to the board.
