CONCERNS ABOUT THE HEALTH OF THE JOHN HUNTER

The state opposition has slammed the O’Farrell Government, over what it calls the Hunter Health Crisis.
Labor’s demanding the Premier commit more funding to John Hunter Hospital, to alleviate waiting times.
The opposition also says there have been concerning cases – including one where an elderly man waited for eight hours in emergency, before being sent home with an undiagnosed brain haemorrhage.
There are currently more than 3,000 patients waiting for elective surgery at the hospital.
