Dr Tolman has worked as a teacher, student counsellor, respiratory physician and geriatrician. Jane was also the Director of Aged Care at the Royal Hobart Hospital.
Jane’s current goal is to develop a state-wide plan for the management of dementia in Tasmania, to support those with dementia, their families and carers, while increasing community literacy about dementia by educational programs and breaking down barriers between the different providers of services to older people.
