The ANMF wrote to CHCT’s general manger on behalf of members about the proposed changes occurring in the Melwood Palliative Care Unit in August 2025. Our letter requested a meeting with CHCT executive team to enable us to understand the proposed changes and how these changes may impact on our members and their working environment.
