Medical Ward – 12 Hour Shifts Change Proposal

On Monday 5 December 2022, the ANMF attended the formal change proposal meeting about 12 hour shifts. The ANMF, on behalf of members provided initial feedback and requested an extension to the response time, as initial consultation suggests that the change proposal is not supported by the majority. Members will be surveyed shortly.

Updates correct as at 21 December 2022.
