    Our Team

    Erin & Adrian Gorlick
    Business Owner/Operators
    Erin and Adrian commenced operation of the Workforce Extensions (WE) Sunshine Health Aged Care business in March 2020 with the sole objective to serve the residential aged care industry with high-quality registered, enrolled nursing and care staff. This commitment was born from Erin’s extensive experience as a Registered Nurse in various senior leadership roles in Residential Aged Care facilities and subsequently her work with the Aged Care and Quality Commission. With more than 20 years’ experience in this field combined with husband Adrian’s decades of experience in the provision of staffing solutions in the Nursing Agency domain, together this partnership forged the foundation for the then start-up business which continues to grow week on week. WE Sunshine Health has since established itself as an industry leader in the servicing of Queensland’s big brand aged care providers, and continues to be recognised for exceptional quality staffing solutions for the aged care sector in metropolitan, regional and remote facilities across Queensland and Northern New South Wales.
