Kirkina Mucko also known as Elizabeth Mukko, (1890-1970) was a Canadian Inuk nurse and midwife. Having lost her legs as a child, and possibly her parents, she was raised in a series of mission homes, hospitals and boarding schools. Returning from abroad around 1908, she worked at the Grenfell Mission in Labrador. After losing family members in the 1918 flu pandemic, Mucko trained as a nurse and midwife, providing services for her community until her later years. A women's shelter in Rigolet has been named in her honor.
