Cancelled surgeries weren’t due to the #nurses’ #strike. They were due to the short staffing and underfunding that #NZNO is trying to fix.
“Nearly 800 surgeries were cancelled and postponed to a later date across several Auckland and Hamilton hospitals, in the three months leading to the end of September this year, due to factors including bed shortages and lack of operating theatre capacity.”

That’s a LOT of striking nurses! We’re here because budget cuts are putting lives at risk
“Over 1000 health organisations, professionals, and advocates [including #NZNO] have signed an open letter calling for united health sector opposition to the Treaty Principles Bill.”
