She speaks at health fairs run by Cedars-Sinai to help recent immigrants access care. She speaks abroad to spread her knowledge to communities that need it.

How Docs, Nurses Heal After Mass Violence
MedPage Today

Margaret ODonnell

Some healthcare professionals see blood, mangled bodies, and death every day, yet certain days are worse than others — like when a dozen police officers are gunned down or 20 kids are killed in their elementary school.
