Candidate for Board of Health – Kathleen Dauphinais

Dear fellow Hanoverians:

It’s officially campaign season! The ballot for the May Annual Town
Election was finalized this evening and Candidate’s Night is next week. I
am pleased to once again provide the “Candidate Information Sheets” that
have been submitted to the Hanover Women’s Club, Jrs. in preparation for
that evening.

The first submission follows below. (All information will be sent on ATOTW
without editing and in the order they are received.)

Candidate Information Sheet

Name: Kathleen (Kate) Dauphinais
Office Seeking: Board of Health
Address: 41 Longwater Drive
Telephone Number: 617-966-0491
Length of Residency: 14 years

Please list relevant experience (education, vocation, etc) you feel will be
useful in the office you are seeking
I received a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Boston College in 1996. I
have been a Registered Nurse for nearly 25 years and have worked in a
variety of specialties including Labor and Delivery, Neonatal Intensive
Care, Pediatric Emergency Medicine, the Operating Room, and OB/Gyn office
and on a medical/surgical floor. I also review cases as a nurse expert in
the area of Labor and Delivery. I will use my healthcare background to
make the best, most informed decisions I can for Hanover.

What are the major issues confronting the town which involve your office.
Please express your opinion on these issues and how you propose to deal
with them.
I was drawn to the opening on the Board of Health when I realized that the
Board lacked representation from a healthcare professional, particularly
during a pandemic. I would be new to the Board of Health so I would have a
lot to learn and would be willing to do so but I have a definite interest
in the pandemic response, which I believe Hanover has done exceptionally
well, our town water issues, and continued development of Hanover. I will
take the time to learn about all the issues which come before the Board and
do my best to make the best decision for our town.

Why are you running for this office?
I have a strong belief in giving back. I have served on the PTA here in
Hanover since my oldest was in Kindergarten and I see this as another way
to become involved and give back to a town which I love and which has given
so much to my family. The Board of Health seemed like the best fit with my
nursing background.
