Nurse breaks silence over public sector health crisis

From Summer Report, 8:27 am on 3 January 2020

A registered nurse is breaking her silence about her horror experience working on the frontline of a public hospital.

She said the health system had been in crisis since 2006 and it was now past its breaking point.
