Abstract
[Extract] Many of us with children have been met with this question as we walk in the door after a busy day. It's usually not an easy question for a public health professional to answer. A medical practitioner can explain how they helped individuals with their health issues, patient by patient. A solicitor can talk about the legal needs of individuals, case by case. For a public health professional, the answer is generally more complicated and convoluted because we work at the population level and our outcomes often take years to achieve. In public health, we tend not to spend a lot of time dwelling on our successes. Yet, if it was not for public health professionals, thousands and possibly hundreds of thousands of Australians and New Zealanders would be spending this holiday season without a loved one. We can, and should, celebrate our successes. As you get ready for the festive season, take some time to reflect on some of these successes.
