“Bundaberg and Burnett patients can’t afford to continue waiting.
These aren’t just numbers on a spreadsheet. They’re our workmates, mums and dads, children, and grandparents.
These are real people who are in life threatening situations.
Despite all the promises, fanfare and spin, things are getting worse at the Bundaberg Hospital.
I’m receiving constant calls from patients and staff who are desperate for help and are out of options.
When governments fail to plan, they plan to fail.
It’s clear the State Labor Government can’t be trusted to fix the health system.
The Opposition has put solutions on the table including better resourcing, improving triaging, real time data monitoring and giving power back to local doctors and nurses to run our hospitals.
It’s time for the Premier to stop making excuses.
Wide Bay patients deserve better.”
