Calvary Health Care Tasmania

The ANMF congratulates members for taking part in Stop Work meetings at St Vincent’s Hospital in the North and Lenah Valley Campus in the South. We hope this has sent a clear message to Calvary Executives that you will not stand by and place patient care at risk, the safest way is to have an enforceable minimum staffing level agreed to as soon as possible. Industrial action will remain in place until this is agreed to.

Northern Organiser, Nicki Hood will be at St Luke’s and St Vincent’s Hospitals throughout the week to discuss with members the next step in industrial action. If you have any concerns, please contact Nicki via email at Nicki.Hood@anmftas.org.au.

The ANMF is also continuing to visit the Lenah Valley Campus and St John’s Hospital to support members throughout the industrial action process.
