Paramedic left to run hospital due to staff shortages
NSW Health has acknowledged the situation, which arose around Christmas when Omicron was rife, wasn't 'perfect'
A paramedic was left to run a town’s hospital with an enrolled nurse in December last year, a situation NSW Health has acknowledged was not “perfect”.
The admission comes after 24 clinical staff from Yass District Hospital in the Southern Tablelands wrote a letter to the NSW Government saying the community was at “risk of harm” and called for urgent action, Nine Newspapers reported.
