| Subject: Whatever the statists touch, turns to shit: Midwives beg for support as OZschwitz hospitals grapple with staff shortages Wed Dec 26, 2018 10:36 pm | |
| Midwives are pleading with the NSW government to fix the "broken" staffing system in public hospitals, claiming that staff shortages, inadequate training and ongoing unfilled vacancies are placing mothers and babies at risk.
