Women Doctors in Military Service, 1915: A Turning Point in their acceptance? | Dr Antonia Newell
In 1914, British and colonial women doctors’ offers to help in military service were refused. Following their work in voluntary medical units, negative attitudes started to change and by 1915 their capability to deal with war casualties was confirmed.
This talk will focus on their achievements in 1915 which led to some being officially attached to the RAMC in 1916.
We hope you enjoyed this presentation which was one of six talks given during the 'President's Virtual Conference' of 2021.
