In lismore base for a couple of weeks several years ago, staff, doctors, nurses were all great .,48 waiting for an available bed the day they rolled me in.

The system to me seemed overstretched and broken ,yet the dedicated people working at the front of it made it work !


There was a sign on one of of the two lifts servicing all floors of the hospital ""Please use the stairs its much quicker this lift has been out of service for over a year"" and most of the staff did just that, which does raise a question if you needed to evacuate many bedridden patients ,how would that work?


As with the AMA i wonder what plans the govt has in place to deal with a surge in covid cases in regional hospitals as many barely cope with general admissions and given the vax rates in certain towns in the are are a lot closer to zero than 80 %
