ANMF COVID-19 Newsflash: North West Private Hospital
The Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation Tasmanian Branch (ANMF) were advised late yesterday by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and the Tasmanian Government that the opening hours at the Mersey Community Hospital (MCH) Emergency Department (ED) were to be reduced further to opening between 0800 hours and 1800 hours due to the inability to safely staff the medical practitioner’s roster.
If the answers given are contradictory to what you are experiencing, please advise the ANMF via our member support team so we can take further action with the facility.
Updates correct as at 4 February 2022.
