Aged Care Updates – Statewide

Masonic Care Tasmania

The ANMF raised several workplace issues across both Peace Haven and Fred French campuses. The ANMF is meeting with Facility Manager Scott Rigby to resolve the concerns mentioned in this letter.

May Shaw Scottsdale (Aminya)

The ANMF met with members on Monday 7 June, 2021 to discuss several outstanding workplace issues and the letter of response from CEO. Feedback from this meeting will be provided to the CEO on behalf of members.

OneCare Umina Park and Rubicon Grove

The ANMF North West Organiser, Annette Beechey attended meetings with care workers at both OneCare sites to endorse the Log of Claims for the upcoming General Staff Enterprise negotiations.

Southern Cross Care Tasmania (SCCT)

The ANMF received notification that Working with Vulnerable People endorsements are now compulsory for all staff. The ANMF is advocating for members by seeking further clarification from SCCT regarding their intention to increase their involvement in disability support work, and the support they will offer to staff when transitioning to have these endorsements.

The ANMF are still awaiting a reply to our letter to the SCCT Board last month.

Updates correct as at 10 June 2021.
Authorised by Emily Shepherd, ANMF Tasmanian Branch Secretary
