ANF
holds national aged care phone-in
On
Saturday 3 July, Australian Nursing Federation branches across
Australia, which includes the Queensland Nurses' Union and the
NSW Nurses' Association, are conducting a national aged care
phone-in. The phone-in is to provide an opportunity for nurses
and other people working in aged care, as well as residents,
families and friends, to share their views about the delivery
of aged care services in Australia and raise awareness of issues
of concern to them in the lead up to the federal election later
this year. This phone-in follows on from the highly successful
phone-in conducted in October 2001.
