LETTER TO EDITOR - 28 April 2005
Dear Editor
Why do Labor Party stalwards keep burying their heads in the sand? E & A Taylor in their Letter to the Editor (FCC 28/04/05) completely missed the point of my earlier comments (FCC 22/04/05).
The simple facts are that the vast majority of doctors serving in the Queensland Health system are indeed foreign-trained and many of these do come from Third-World countries which can ill afford to have their staff poached by an affluent Western country like Australia.
Secondly, whilst we acknowledge and welcome the services of capable practitioners from whatever part of the world, the overwhelming evidence is that State-operated health services in Queensland are being run down by the present Beattie administration and, despite the most sincere intentions of local staff, our hospitals are simply failing to deliver the health care expected by our community.
The piffle from Labor Party faithful about people criticising nursing staff is simply a red herring to divert attention from the crisis facing our hospital system and the inability of this Government to properly address the issues.
