Sometimes it almost beggars belief what the NSW Government, NSW Dept of Health, the North Coast Area Health Service and its CEO Chris Crawford consider priorities in a region where public health services continue to fail to meet community need.
Target budget cuts of $300M, undertake a three-wave reduction of 400 health care positions from directors of nursing right down to ward staff. Even sack a hospital chaplain. Because the Northern Rivers doesn't need medical services - it needs an expensive spin doctor!
