Better Border Health Rally


Better Border Health Rally draws hundreds to demand new hospital – 15 May 2022

Hundreds gathered at a Border health rally on Sunday 15 May with patients taking centre stage to air their grievances about the “constipated” system and offering praise and sympathy for struggling staff working within it.

The crowd at Gateway Lakes roared with approval when Albury man Brad George, who suffers from constant heart problems, outlined his experiences at the base hospital and pleaded with politicians in the audience to listen and relay the health crisis back to Canberra.

Every day nurses are going home broken.

I love being a nurse, I love caring for people – every day we struggle to deliver that level of care
