The ANMF would like to strengthen the voice of members by increasing the number of ANMF Reps at Hobart Private and St Helen’s Hospitals. As a Rep, members are a contact person between the ANMF and the workplace. Being a Rep includes advocating for improvements in the workplace and having direct access to your Organiser. Reps are able to attend the Annual Delegates Conference and be involved in decision making on many Nursing and Health related issues. If you are passionate about making change in your workplace and representing your colleagues, contact Organiser Jane Pond via email jane.pond@anmftas.org.au
