Question time again

Why is it that Careflight doctors will only work on a Careflight aircraft?
How does the Canadian proposal put lives at risk? Is CHC unsafe?
Careflight doctors are concerned that new proposed management and equipment will not meet safety stands. What are the concerns that Careflight doctors have with the equipment to be provided.
Luis Gallur appears to have killed off Careflight, as it appears that he has not assessed the situation or appraised what equipment is to be provided or discussed the future management structure.
Dr Gallur said that the government would have to take out unqualified junior doctors from the public sector. I was told that NSW Health System already have a state paid and employed medical retrieval system that is superior to Careflight, the public does not hear from these teams because they do not seek media attention.
  • Out of the 35 Doctors withdrawing services how many are registrars?
  • How many are employed from over seas?
  • How many hours a week do each perform in retrieval?
  • How many have second and third jobs with NSW health
Many questions need to be raised as to the media driven out cry of the poor little Careflight doctors feeling ruffled.
What motivation is there for this out cry? Is it MONEY, TAX Lurks, positions of power etc? This is a very fishy situation and more scrutiny needs to be applied to this bunch of premadonnas
