Nurses performing Doc's Work in Sydney

[Geeg]

I tried reading about this in this site's nsg news section, but couldn't get to the article. What is this all about? I am sure that the nurses did a much better job than the docs would have anyway-and unfortunately for a much lower wage.

chased it down - you are better off with the ABC news anyway from ABC Online. Let me dig around a little but I think the orignal was a follow on from this story

NSW is going through a big enquiry into it's hospitals and hospital managment thanks to some brave whistle blowing nurses.

Yeah - they did good!! Imagine having the guts to go to the health minister and when he threatens you, you do NOT back down and instead CAUSE 3 goverment enquiries to be launched - good for them!!!
