Nurses at Sydney hospital walk out over 'dangerous' conditions

"The system at the moment is completely broken," Laura McKone, from the NSW Nurses and Midwives' Association, told 9news.com.au.McKone said nurses were under incredible pressure, mentally and emotionally, because of the workload.McKone said assistants in nursing were not adequately trained to care for seriously unwell and ventilated patients in Hornsby's intensive care.

Nurses from Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Hospital are angry at low staffing levels which they say has created difficult and dangerous workloads. In a statement, the Hornsby hospital said it is "working closely with our clinicians and the nurses union to explore new models of care and staffing contingencies" as it responds to the COVID-19 pandemic and busy winter season.

"At this stage no changes have been made and discussions are ongoing with the union," a spokesperson said.cases are putting increased demand on hospitals, particularly in New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland.

At this Point medical training is going to be a necessary part in a child and young adults curriculum

Same problems in UK.

Many have been lost and many more are leaving… Covid vaccine mandates are just the beginning of a long run of medical trials on our healthcare workers without their informed consent. Healthcare workers should know better than to support mandates…

MSMWatchdog2013 not only do nurses have to look after the covid sick and dying, they have to point out to the government how terrible and dangerous this situation has become They are HEROES!!

Perrottet led the let it rip charge. We all knew this would happen but he didn’t care. $$$ comes first with him.

I wish HCW and teachers had gone on strike in 2020. This would be over now.

By system, you mean government? Yes

Life is completely broken.

WOW Has anyone seen anything like this over past 2.5 years, like maybe in every other country whose psychopathic Govt’s choose to “Live With/Let Reap”? COVID19 Who’s idea was it to dump quarantine, PCR TTIQ & disease preventions for forced mass infections? Qantas Spirit of Greed

just love this look for you, getting everything you wanted and then playing dumb trying to find the guy who did this, very endearing

Only broken in NSW though…. Clowns. You should ask questions not just blindly report union run stories auspol

Non-hypergolic liquid propellants, etc used by AI Satelites to fall back to earth, burning, release tons of different poisonous gasses. 25 tons of burning Chinese Long March 5B rocket, fell Sunday-noon over the Philippines waking up weird climate & illness with COVID symptoms...

It will get worse after fall and burning out of Chinese Long March 5B rocket over Phillipines 12h0 noon on 31 July 2022!! Mask up for air pollution breathed!!

I'm glad they're bringing focus to the terrible strain that they are facing all so the majority can pretend Covid is over and not be inconvenienced by wearing a mask.

Don't say we weren't warned. Sack NSW State Government. auspol nswpol

Masking is a good tool to stop infecting, everyone knows in the world, but people like freedom, here the freedom is equal to selfish.

Governments fault

Shockers

Who cares, advocated for this … we know already

One big farkin mystery.

Nurses are not being listened to. Govt don’t care about the strain that covid has put on our health care system, if they did care they would put safeguards in place to mitigate the spread instead of shirking responsibility. Doesn’t even get a mention from Albo. Disgusting.

NjbBari3 Canada is experiencing this, too.

Now if so the injected staff with now proven better immune systems could be allowed to work.

The system is just buckling under extreme pressure from covid infections. To fix this you need to reduce covid infections. What is broken is government response or lack of.

Yep the 'let-COVID-19-rip' system which every MSM outlet cheered for and facilitated. Interviewed every coffee shop owner and tourist trap manager in the land. Scarcely ever interviewed a worker, a doctor, a nurse, an ambo, an immuno-compromised person, a person who lost someone.

Blackrock and Soros control all media globally.They are the WEF funders like Gates.All media pretending to be news are disgusting and should be behind bars with the other animals

Our country is a fcking joke.
