Linda is proud to say she has been a hospital pharmacist for forty years, and involved in the professional body, AdPha/SHPA, over that time. Linda became a SHPA Fellow and am currently a member of the AdPha Medication Safety Leadership Committee and responsible for editing the Medication Safety series in GRIT. During her time at Prince of Wales Hospital, Sydney, Linda worked in oncology, clinical trials, medicines information, and haematology.  Linda established the first pharmacy service to the POWH Emergency Department. Resulting from funded research with Dr Madlen Gazarian into medication errors in paediatrics, a QUM position at Sydney Children’s Hospital was established.  For most of the last 16 years in Melbourne Linda has been leading the Alfred Health Medication Safety program and the network ADR Review Committee.  Linda's most recent interest is promoting medication safety globally, and specifically along with her Latvian pharmacy colleagues.
