Sarah Courtney,Minister for Health
The Tasmanian Liberal Government’s number one priority is the safety and wellbeing of all Tasmanians, especially during these unprecedented times.
The latest Health Dashboard results for the December 2019 quarter shows continuing demand growth for acute health services.
It’s clear that our targets to improve results won’t be achieved, with our focus on taking actions to appropriately respond and prepare our hospitals around Tasmania for the fight against COVID-19, including the temporary suspension of all non-urgent elective surgeries last week.
It’s important for Tasmanians to know that we will continue to work hard to improve the level of care available for Tasmanians as the situation continues to evolve and as we move into recovery phases in the future.
