Govt plan to fund nurse clinic ‘on same street as four practices’ angers GPs
Dr Cathyrn Hester says the Queensland Government clinic is a ‘misguided use of taxpayer money’.
The Queensland Government will open a nurse clinic to provide GP-style care in central Brisbane, which the RACGP says will harm nearby GP practices and waste taxpayers’ money.
The state’s Minister for Health, Shannon Fentiman, announced plans for four nurse-led women’s health clinics back in March, at a cost of $46 million.
