QUEENSLAND HEALTH CRISIS BOMBSHELL

Labor’s Health Disaster Missed ramping, surgery and ED targets as Health Crisis gets worse under Labor Labor can’t be trusted to fix Queensland Health Crisis

The Queensland Health Crisis continues to get worse under Labor with Budget documents exposing Labor’s disastrous record on health.

Ahead of the election Labor released a Budget that prioritises their own electoral survival for the next four months, instead of the Budget Queenslanders needed for the next four years and beyond.

While Labor crows about record budgets, Labor’s health record has been laid bare.

It’s more of the same. We’ve seen it all before and it just gets worse under Labor.

The Budget has exposed Labor’s failure to have a plan to heal the Queensland Health Crisis beyond the election:

• The target for ambulance ramping was 10%, Labor’s record is well over 4 times that figure – the worst in the nation
• The target for Emergency Department was 80%, Labor’s record is 60.7%
• The target for elective surgeries was 98%, Labor’s record is 86.8%
When Shannon Fentiman took over as Health Minister, she promised to reduce ambulance ramping to 28%, but Queensland still has the worst ambulance ramping in the nation.

Last quarter Labor recorded the worst ambulance ramping figure in history at 45.5%

The truth is, Labor will say and do anything to cling to power, but they can’t be trusted to heal the Queensland Health Crisis.

They promised to heal the Queensland Health Crisis, yet Queenslanders are waiting to see specialists, waiting for critical surgeries and waiting on ambulance ramps.

In contrast, the LNP has put health solutions on the table including more resources, better triaging, releasing data in real-time and putting doctors and nurses back in charge to improve patient care.

The LNP has also committed to releasing real-time hospital data within 100 days of election so Queenslanders can see what’s happening in our hospitals.

Only the LNP has the Right Priorities for Queensland’s Future, including easier access to health services.
