Emergency Department (ED)

The ANMF has been made aware of the recent changes to rostering in the Emergency Department due in part to the inability to access agency nurses. The ANMF wants to ensure that you have full support to get the resources that you need to safely staff. We will meet with ED members at the NWRH mass member meeting on Friday 13 May 2022 at 1430hrs. Come along and have your say.
