Southern Cross Care Tasmania are planning to remove almost 50 enrolled nurses, replacing them with lower-paid personal care workers.
We need your help to stop this cynical, cost-cutting exercise from happening. Click here to send an email to the CEO of Southern Cross Care Tasmania.
Removal of enrolled nurses will only lead to less clinical nursing care for vulnerable aged care residents.
The Royal Commission recommended more qualified nurses in aged care, not less. Current government reforms in aged care are focused on improving the quality of care for residents, but some providers are gaming the system to maximise profits.
It’s unconscionable that these taxpayer-funded aged care providers are manipulating the Albanese Government’s reforms. Mandating minimum care minutes for ENs, RNs and PCWs in nursing homes across Australia must be implemented as a matter of urgency to protect the residents.
Help save nurses and protect the residents by sending an email to Southern Cross Care Tasmania.
