Dan Minchin
Head of Strategy
Silver Chain Nursing Association

Dan Minchin has always strived to do meaningful and stimulating work during his eclectic career.

This work ethos was clearly evident when he played a key role in the merger between the Silver Chain Nursing Association and the Royal District Nursing Service South Australia in 2011.

Both organisations have more than 100 years of history in delivering health and aged care, and Mr Minchin’s role was to ensure the merger was smooth and had minimal disruption on services.

With the right procedures and systems in place, the merger took less than a year to complete, leading to the rebranding into the Silver Chain Group, which now has aspirations to widen its reach further across the country.

Mr Minchin also contributes to the state’s cultural vibrancy through his position as president of the WA Music Industry Association.
