On Tuesday 5 July 2022, the ANMF attended a meeting with senior Tasmanian Health Service (THS) Management (in the company of ANMF members) regarding workload and staffing issues originally canvassed via correspondence in April 2022. These discussions went to the effects of sick leave, vacancies, co-habiting of Geriatric and Palliative patients on the unit, as well as questions to the bed categories as ascribed by the Nursing House per Patient Day (NHpPD). The THS has committed to producing some additional data to further these discussions, whilst the ANMF anticipates engaging the office of the Executive Director of Nursing regarding the outstanding Benchmarking concerns. Members will be advised via separate Newsflashes.
