Professor Catherine Crock is a Professor at Deakin University’s Centre for Social and Early Emotional Development and has been a physician at the Royal Children’s Hospital, Melbourne since 1994.
Catherine has worked closely with patients, families and staff to improve quality and safety. She is Chair of the Hush Foundation which transforms healthcare culture through the arts. Hush produces specially composed Australian music to reduce stress for children, families and staff.
In collaboration with playwright Alan Hopgood AM, Catherine developed plays which are performed in hospitals and elderly care facilities to raise awareness of patient centred care, communication and patient safety.
She also cofounded the Gathering of Kindness, a movement promoting a kind health system.
She was made a Member of the Order of Australia in 2015 for her contribution to medicine, to community healthcare standards and to the Arts, and was also conferred a Fellowship of Monash University in 2020, a position only given to a couple of distinguished alumni annually.
