QNMU First Nations Branch members Hylda Wapau (Bamaga Hospital, Nurse Navigator/CNC) and Mary Underwood (Thursday Island Primary Health, Community Health/CN) travelled to Austin, Texas in November 2022 to participate in the Third International Indigenous Nurses Research Summit. They were part of the poster presentation sessions, speaking to the poster titled Torres Strait Islander Nurse Led COVID Vaccination Team which focussed on the outstanding work they and their colleagues undertook to boost vaccination uptake by 70% the Torres Strait and Northern Peninsular Area last year.
