Albo’s wildly out-of-control mass immigration program is now killing Ambos:
One in 12 NSW Ambulance employees has, or has had, a WorkCover claim for a psychological injury in the past two years, with those on the road saying it is the “guilt of patients dying” due to “an overburdened health system” that is making them sick.
Documents obtained by the Herald exclusively under freedom of information laws reveal that there are 351 open claims for psychological injuries against NSW Health by ambulance staff sustained in the 24 months until the end of September 2023, while a further 160 have been finalised in the past two years. A psychological injury can be post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression or other stress-related illness.
Demand for NSW Ambulance is the highest it has ever been, according to the latest Bureau of Health Information statistics, with only 52.9 per cent of ambulances arriving within 10 minutes to regional call-outs for the highest-priority cases in the quarter from April to June 2023. For urban areas, 69.4 per cent of ambulances arrived within 10 minutes for highest-priority cases, which include people who are not breathing, in cardiac arrest, unconscious and not responding.
It is not the job of government to ruin public services, abuse the staff that help the public, put the health of the public at risk, and put the welfare of everybody other than Australians first.
But that’s the Albanese Government’s answer to everything: more people will fix it.
