Are you a healthcare worker in Queensland? I'd love to hear from you!

Every day in parliament and the media we hear about ambulance ramping, the need for better healthcare funding, staffing and beds, the pressures of an ageing population, mental health issues among patients and healthcare workers, population growth, increasing chronic disease rates, issues in the primary care, aged care and disability support systems, socioeconomic inequality, underinvestment in research and innovation, our level of preparedness for a surge in COVID-19 cases and many other issues.

But I'd love to hear from you, as someone on the frontline of healthcare, about what really matters.

This survey will help me to identify priority issues to push for in Queensland parliament, and in the community.

All responses are confidential - I will deidentify any information I use publicly.
