NPAV Nurses' Professional Association of Victoria

NPAV is an employee union that fights to protect Victorian Nurses (also representing Tasmania), not promote a political party. Proudly a Red Union association.

Two midwives, both mothers, were assaulted and chased back to the hospital after a late-night shift. When we surveyed staff, every single respondent said they felt unsafe walking to their car.

A retired paramedic spent 25 years walking nurses to their cars at Geelong Hospital because security wouldn't do it.

What needs to happen before this gets fixed?

A pregnant nurse. A screwdriver at her throat. This is Victoria's healthcare system in 2026.

They deserve a government and a health system that treats their safety as non-negotiable.

Two Geelong midwives were chased through a carpark after a night shift last Friday.

We want to know: have YOU ever felt unsafe walking to your car after a shift?

A significant policy reversal in aged care — and an important one.

The government announced it will remove co-payments for assisted showering, dressing, and continence care in home-care settings, effective October 1.

The Victorian Government promised nurses free degrees. Then left 1,500 of them without jobs.

This isn't just Victoria's failure. It's a national crisis in the making.

🏥 Hospitals are no longer running hospitals, governments are.

When politicians control hospital decisions, patient care suffers.

We need to flip the system back withn clinician-led, locally autonomous hospitals that understand their community.

💔 “The staff were good. They were competent but there were too few of them.”

In this piece by Sydney GP Dr Marie Healy, we see what happens when care collapses because our system is stretched beyond breaking.

Do you feel the system is collapsing?
