"The Minister for Health and Human Services, Lara Giddings, today said reforming and expanding Tasmania’s nursing workforce was critical to the future of the State’s health services.
Ms Giddings said the recruitment of an additional 75 nurses was close to completion, while a range of workforce reform initiatives were already underway.
“Nurses and midwives make up more than one third of the DHHS workforce and are the largest professional group in the State,” Ms Giddings said."
