In a Flinders University ceremony to celebrate the Centenary of Women's Suffrage in South Australia, Helen was awarded the Chancellor's Medal, which recognized women whose lives and careers most fulfilled the aspirations of the women suffragettes. The citation made reference to her successful career in a male-dominated profession, to her substantial contributions to rural practice, and to support she gave to fellow practitioners.
