For Pamela Cohen, it wasn’t enough that the cardiac patients in the hospital where she worked received the best care. Pamela wanted that level of care to be available to every cardiac patient, throughout Australia and overseas. She received good advice on what she needed to do to influence this field of medical practice, and she followed it.
In fact, good advice from influential women is what led Pamela to a career in social work in the first place. And that story connects her to the most tumultuous events in our political history.
