Everyday Hero for Grafton-Sullivan CAC
Deborah Pullin, Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center
Like so many others, Deb Pullin didn't set out to focus her career on supporting abused children, but instead describes her destiny as one that was gradual and evolved over time. For her it began in 1981. Fresh out of a graduate school nursing program, Deb was working in a large mid-western clinic when a baby was brought in with a hand print on its cheek. Back then, the medical field was just beginning to explore the epidemic of child abuse and the baby was released without the kind of full medical work-up that would be standard practice today.
When asked how she continues in this field day after day, she simply replies, "The work needs to be done." Like so many other CAC team members from around the state she also talks of the strength and support she gains from working with great people, both inside and outside of DHMC. To her these dedicated team members make an enormous difference, and it is without question that the advent of the Child Advocacy Center of Grafton and Sullivan Counties at DHMC has buoyed her sense of hope.
Deb now provides medical care exclusively for child abuse assessment and for children in foster care. Sadly, her weeks always include a full case load. But, more than just providing medical care to New Hampshire's (and Vermont's) abused children, Deb has been an invaluable asset in both growing New Hampshire CAC movement, and also in securing the funds necessary to support a statewide medical response. Deb is leader, a friend and an everyday hero doing a hero's job every day. Thank you Deb Pullin for all you do on behalf of New Hampshire children and families.
