SUMMARY:Trailblazers in Care: Women in Medicine and Public Health in Springfield
DESCRIPTION:Trailblazers in Care: Women in Medicine and Public Health in Springfield \n\nJoin us for a fascinating program exploring the stories of pioneering women who reshaped medicine and public health in Western MA.\n\n\n\nThis Women’s History Month\, join us for a fascinating program exploring the stories of pioneering women who reshaped medicine and public health in Springfield and Western Massachusetts. \nLearn about Dr. Seraph Frissell\, one of the first women admitted to the Massachusetts Medical Society and a Springfield physician whose medical writings challenged convention\, and Dr. Mary Phylinda Dole\, a trailblazing “country doctor” who became the first female physician at Franklin County Public Hospital and devoted her career to opening doors for women in medicine. We’ll also place their achievements in the broader context of women’s medical leadership across Massachusetts\, from early public health advocacy to groundbreaking nursing education. \nThrough their lives\, we’ll discover how women challenged barriers\, advanced healthcare\, and left a legacy that continues to shape our communities today. This event will be on March 19 at pm. Please register here. \nAbout The Lecture Series and Presenter \nThis virtual lecture is part of the Donald Courtemanche Winter Lecture Series\, co-presented by the Springfield Preservation Trust\, Springfield Museums\, and Springfield City Library\, and generously underwritten by Bob McCarroll.
