Oi, Nathan Rees! Why are we always the poor cousins when it comes to health care?

I'm fed up with that Labor Government mob sitting in Sydney and deciding that the Northern Rivers should pay for past Iemma-Costa mismanagement of the state coffers.
We're told that the North Coast Area Health Service now has to save $20 million over 4 years to help Premier Rees and NSW Health Minister John Della Bosca out of a budgetary black hole.
Jaysus wept!
Our local district hospitals are already attempting to send elderly patients home without appropriate discharge plans, because either staff or beds are not there due to current financial constraints.
In one instance an old man who was supposedly receiving CAPS-funded care in the home, lay on the floor of his house for two days before being found and returned to the hospital where he then died.
And this incident is not an isolated case.
So Mr. Rees - how many more of us are you going to knock off before you are satisfied with your bottom line?

If you too are fed up with regional health services, use this form to send an online letter to the NSW Minister for Health here.
