In 2019, NSW Labor party Michael Daley proposed a tax on luxury cars worth more than $100,000 and yachts worth more than $200,000 to raise $240 million. The additional tax review would be used to increase funding for nurse staffing. The proposal would insure one nurse for every three patients in major emergency departments, one midwife for every three mothers in postnatal wards and one nurse to each patient in adult and pediatric resuscitation beds.
Yes, because the workforce has reduced due to the vaccine mandate
More nurses are needed - see - 7 yr old girl died whilst waiting in ED to be treated ...at Perth Childrens Hosital
dependent on patient requirement, funding model etc. question too simplistic
Yes, and increase nurse salary.
I would to know more. No opinion at this time.
No, it should be at as many that are necessary.
Yes, but wages should be below demand
It is about correct.
Yes, for the duration and aftermath of the COVID pandemic
Yes, but only if it is because the patient is severely un-well
@9SKPG3RConservative11mos
Should depend on the hospital, nurse experience, quality of care and location.
@broad3One Nation11mos
Yes but only Australians
@9RXLL3KOne Nation12mos
Yes, depending on the amount of care a patient requires, possibly with an assessment. I think the funding however should not come from tax on luxury cars and yachts.
Let the businesses choose
It would depend on the case for example if it’s a case that isn’t serious then they don’t need 15 nurses looking after them but someone with a serious case who needs the care should have the help they need.
Nursing ratios are an inout control and don't affect quality.. other measure need to be considered
Are you saying there’s not enough nurses for the patients? Or too many patients for the nurses? Just don’t run hospitals on skeleton crews.
yes and nurses should be paid more
