Rosebery Community Health Centre, the ANMF continue to pursue Salary Maintenance

Since December 2021, the ANMF has pursued salary maintenance on behalf of members as the ongoing reduction of service delivery at Rosebery Community Health Centre (RCHC) has had a financial impact. The ANMF is advised that the deed will be finalised shortly, the ANMF will be in contact with members as soon as the deed is available.

North West Regional Hospital (NWRH) Spencer Clinic Workload Grievance

The ANMF, on behalf of members, continue to meet with Statewide Mental Health Service (SMHS) management to monitor the progress and pursue outcomes for the Step 3 Workload Grievance. The current safe staffing matrix and capped patient numbers will remain whilst benchmarking occurs. Data collection commenced in January and members have identified some discrepancies which the ANMF raised at the ongoing Workload Consultation meeting with Spencer Clinic management. Members are encouraged to participate in data collection and raise concerns with management or with ANMF North West Organiser, Annette Beechey via email Annette.Beechey@anmftas.org.au.

Updates correct as at 8 February 2023.
