Providing quality, safe, and inclusive healthcare, Nurse Practitioner (NP) Toni has developed a nurse practitioner-led transgender and gender-diverse clinic for people aged 18 years and over. Having an NP-led model of care can provide many advantages. https://t.co/eGx80Cl2yD

We support reforms that remove red tape and improve access to healthcare for women seeking a medical termination. Allowing Nurse Practitioners to prescribe MS-2 Step on the PBS, will go a long way in removing some of the barriers that exist for women, particularly in rural 1/2

Nurses at Wollongong Day Surgery have walked off the job for four hours this morning following a breakdown in talks over safe staffing ratios and fair pay with their employer.
More to come. @nswnma #Illawarra

[Ged Kearney @gedkearney]

Too many women suffer for years with what we know can be debilitating conditions. They deserve to be taken seriously with better access to specialised care.

That’s why today I announced Australia’s first national Endometriosis & Pelvic Pain Clinics.

In your darkest hour, friends matter. 💗

“Nurses, NPs and midwives provide quality care in every setting in Australia including rural and remote, where often, there are no GP’s. It’s just common-sense to allow them to work to their full scope of practice in these settings."

Qualified and experienced ENs are a critical component of the aged care workforce.

It is unacceptable that a small minority of providers are looking to lower the standard of care available to residents in aged care facilities.

📢 MILESTONE FOR AGED CARE!

This Bill puts nurses back into nursing homes by ensuring people living in residential care will have access to a nurse 24/7 - wherever they live.

It will also bring transparency back to aged care through improved public reporting.

[ANMF - Australian Nursing Midwifery Federation @anmf_federal]

BREAKING NEWS: Aged care reform passes!

-Registered nurses 24/7
-Mandated minimum care staffing minutes
-Transparency and accountability on public funding

Thankyou to all Senators supporting #agedcare

A law for registered nurses in #agedcare 24/7:
“It’s vital. People don’t stop dying and getting sick just because the roster finishes at 10 o’clock at night. They deserve and need RN's to be there to assess, treat and manage symptoms around the clock." NP Juliane

@DavidPocock

[ANMF - Australian Nursing Midwifery Federation @anmf_federal]

"I feel positive the government is starting to implement some reform in aged care. I’m hopeful that it will be a continuing process." NP Juliane

We urge Senators to pass the #agedcare reform bill today. It's vital to begin fixing the crisis.
