Dr Amy Montgomery is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at IMPACCT, University of Technology Sydney, and an Aged Care Nurse Practitioner with clinical expertise in dementia, delirium, and palliative care. Her research focuses on translating evidence into practice through innovative education, clinical trials, and models of care. Her PhD, supported by an Australian Government Postgraduate Research Internship with Ramsay Health and a University of Wollongong matched scholarship, evaluated simulation-based delirium education using OSCE and group-OSCE interventions. This work demonstrated improvements in healthcare practitioners’ and medical students’ delirium knowledge, confidence, competence, and adherence to delirium care standards across multiple hospitals. Amy is a Director and Secretary of the Australasian Delirium Association and designed and currently facilitates the Foundations of Delirium Workshop, a nationally delivered, interactive, interprofessional program combining expert-led lectures and simulation-based learning. Her postdoctoral work focuses on designing and implementing delirium prevention and recovery models of care. |
