The State Government is privatising essential services in our hospitals. United Voice and Health Services Union have united to fight the State Government’s privatisation agenda because we know that privatisation will lead to lower standards and poorer quality of care in our hospitals. We also know that it will result in fewer jobs, lower pay and increased workloads for hospital workers.

Recent experiences in Australia and around the world have shown that the privatising of government services has eroded the quality of care and lowered standards in hospitals. The State Government argues that privatisation saves money, but experience shows that privatised health services often cost taxpayers more money.

The fight against privatisation is a fight we cannot afford to lose. Please join our campaign to keep our hospitals In Public Hands.

Community Turns out against Privatisation of Midland Health Campus

A packed Midland Town Hall saw angry members of the community confront government MP Frank Alban and Minister Helen Morton about the Barnett Government’s privatisation of their local hospital.

Despite growing community anger about this issue, the State government is pushing ahead with plans to privatise the Midland Health Campus, which will replace the Swan Districts Hospital.
