Long-term patient at St Luke’s wants Health Minister to see just how busy nurses are

Posted on

Deana says “Nurses at St Luke’s hospital haven’t got time to breathe.”

“Nurses at St Luke’s hospital haven’t got time to breathe.”

This is according to Deana who is a long term patient at the hospital and who says nurses there are well and truly run off their feet.

Earlier this month, St Luke’s opened a new Oncology Unit and an Acute Medical Assessment Unit.

But Deana insists that the Minister for Health should visit the hospital unannounced and see for himself how hard the nurses are worked.
