Hospital staff asked to ‘turn the lights off’ to save money under looming budget cuts
Alfred Health CEO Professor Andrew Way has urged staff to find ways to reduce costs in light of reduced budgets: leaked email.
Staff at three Melbourne hospitals have reportedly been asked to consider “turning the lights off” and limit recruitment in anticipation of looming budget cuts.
In a leaked email, Alfred Health CEO Professor Andrew Way said difficult decisions were ahead, given the model budgets provided by the State Government were “significantly less” than expected.
