Remembering the Bali bombing

From Afternoons, 3:10 pm on 11 October 2022

20 years ago, New Zealand Nurse Stephanie Breen opened the doors of the Bali International Medical Centre,  and  her heart fell to the floor. 

Injured people were everywhere after bombs went off in the Kuta tourist district. 202 people died, including 3 New Zealanders.  

Hundreds upon hundreds were injured and were treated by Stephanie and her small team of doctors and nurses. She was awarded an Order of Australia Medal for helping the injured that terrible day.

We'll talk to Stephanie Breen about the 20th anniversary and a long career helping people at the worst of times in one of the best places in the world.
