@JacintaAllanMP When are you going to start building the much needed bigger and better greenfield hospital that Albury Wodonga needs Premier? The brownfield disaster isn’t going to cut the mustard. @BBorderhealth @border_medical

[Border Medical Association @border_medical]

@adbunn A very cynical ploy to dampen the noise on the hospital before the byelection. And yet the next day the NSW premier opens a hospital co-funded with the federal government. And there are so many other examples of Federal funding for hospital infrastructure.

A wonderful tribute.

Thankyou @helenhainesindi for a simple but effective solution that can unlock the needed funds for a new single site hospital and health facilities for other starved regions.

Why should people experiencing such a crisis be forced to seek care in Box Hill or Orange??

Remember when you came to Albury @MarkSpeakman and unquestioningly backed the Lib local member in his support for the inadequate Albury hospital redevelopment - we don’t have a helipad either. Please come back to Albury and listen to the clinicians.

Another code yellow called as pressure mounts on Border’s public hospitals.
An extra 35 beds for $558 million is a waste of money, ⁦@RyanPark_Keira⁩ ⁦@MaryAnneThomas⁩ - we need a decent hospital on a new site! https://t.co/xbbk5pyaHw

If the planned works go ahead, main Albury Wodonga hospital and surrounds will be consigned to years of chaos.
We need leaders to speak up - for equity, fairness, integrity and the responsible investment. #newhospital #newsite

[Border Medical Association @border_medical]

Why are proponents for the dud makeover of Albury base hospital still trying to propose that we will have all services on one site? Clearly misleading when both the NSW and Victorian governments have walked away from what our community have called for!

[Michelle Cowan @chelleCowan1]

Great news for Bankstown Hospital: additional $700m total $2billion. In Albury Wodonga we’re getting budget constrained decisions and deaf ear to 200+ Drs that say stop, we need a new hospital. ⁦@ChrisMinnsMP⁩ ⁦@RyanPark_Keira⁩ #inequity https://t.co/gzPpfj2oZl

@JacintaAllanMP Premier, please intervene in the decisions affecting Albury Wodonga Health. We need deliberate and careful oversight for better outcomes urgently! @border_medical

Dr Lachie McKeeman talking about our challenges in healthcare at the Victorian National Party Big Ideas Forum in Wodonga. The audience gets it, very well received. @BBorderhealth @border_medical @Gaellebroad

[Bobbi McKibbin @BobbiMckibbin]

@ChrisMinnsMP I’m sure whatever you’re going through in Sydney is nothing in comparison to trying to get a bed at Albury Wodonga Health. Bed shortages of -30 to -70 every single day! Do better. @BBorderhealth @border_medical @JacintaAllanMP @Mark_Butler_MP @helenhainesindi

[Michelle Cowan @chelleCowan1]

@helendalton22 and they’ll spend $558million on a revamp of Albury Hospital that NSWHI execs told us would not result “in any loss of what we currently have”. New report says it is the optimal way to waste precious health funds - but Minister won’t stop works. #newhospital #newsite

[Michelle Cowan @chelleCowan1]

The Special Commission of Inquiry into Healthcare Funding report - it’s a must-read.

Little analysis and evidence - the optimal way of risking the wastage of precious public funds.
You can responsibly stop this! @RyanPark_Keira @MaryAnneThomas

@BobbiMckibbin @sussanley @BBorderhealth @MaryAnneThomas @RyanPark_Keira @Mark_Butler_MP @helenhainesindi Health is the number one game. The Albury votes and the resounding victory for Helen Haines spells that out clearly. Time for a new hospital.
