I'm so sorry for your loss. RIP. Now this time in March 2021, I hope the healthcare system in Australia has improved!

I work in the health field and to be honest where I work it is almost like they gamble and some of the doctors and nurses are incompetent and they will make mistakes w/ out catching their mistakes until is too late. It is so sad but that is the reality

I lost my son due to the failure of a major regional teaching hospital in NSW. The death was investigated and found many systemic issues caused his death. Admission of guilt doesn't bring my son back.

It's obvious the triage system, medical/nursing staff knowledge failed the patient in this case. Is it a system failure, hospital mismanagement or just pure sloppy medical service? Someone needs to take responsibility to fixing up this mess. Australia is one of the richest countries in the world (member of the world G20), we have the resources to fix this. However, do we have the 'will' to? Australia is the home to smart people, there are no excuses.

I was not in the medical profession, but worked for several anesthetic doctors here in the USA--most of them were drug addicts-- I wonder how much has changed in the (many ) years since.
@jerriedenham23205 жыл бұрын
dhamma58 I work as a medical professional in the US. ALL are subject to random drug screens including the doctors, especially those who have frequent access to the drugs. So you comment to MOST is not accurate at all. The ones with frequent close access to the drugs are screened the most, and those who do test positive, there are severe consequences.
@dhamma585 жыл бұрын
my comment was geared to my experience of 25 to 40 years ago. How things are handled now will certainly be different. Although the example at USC recently does not inspire much confidence.

@@jerriedenham2320 Actually I don't think that happens in Australia. I have experience with one of the Dr's mentioned in this program. To me he seems like he is permanently on something ! It's either that or he just does not care, it could also be both. Also the hospital he worked at is in a isolated country area that finds it exceptionally difficult to find and keep Dr's. So they can virtually get away with murder. They have had more than their fair share of butchers of Dr's too. The particular Dr mentioned in one of the stories is still working in that community.

@riccardoz29533 жыл бұрын
all those reports shoked me. basic monitoring teached at first year of nursing could prevent most of those problem. not only the doctors but also the nurses has to be charged. not taking basic parameters? not monitoring oxigen value in an intubated patient? Even more shoking, intubation is made by trained doctors, but as nurse u have to verify that is in correct position with using a 50ml air siringe and lissening the chest. if u hear bobbling = u are putting air in the stomach. and anyway, after that an Xray has to be performed to verify the positioning . we're talking of a procedure made in a hospital not in a field.

Well I wont be going to Broken Hill or Bega now because if anything goes wrong and I need to go to the hospital that will be my demise. Nor will I go to Ayers rock or any other remote place. Its not worth the risk. Maybe tourist operators need to look at the hospital facilities in their region before promoting their tourist destination. I will choose my holidays where there are emergency hospitals with a good record. Politicians must be forced to go the public hospitals too. If they have private cover their fees should be double. When the libs are in power balancing the books is the priority. Yes the debt is reduced but at what cost to humans lives in the community. When labour is in they have a more humanitarian approach. Which will it be more national debt or a balanced budget. With the Libs the Money god wins again as always. With Labour the national debt increases. I think debt is a better option.
