National Party MP Adrian Piccoli announced the launch of a new petition against the outsourcing of a nursing home in Leeton, one of the fastest growing regions in New South Wales.
According to Piccoli, the community raised $750,000 to build the Carramar Nursing Home. He said regardless of over 12 questions on notice, the New South Wales government did not give any assurances concerning the restoration of funds. He claimed that he had only been told that “funds raised will be used to deliver enhanced health services to the community.”
Mr Piccoli wanted the local Labor MLC Tony Catanzariti to support the complaint because he was directly connected to the Minister for Health.
Meanwhile, David Laugher, general manager of Leeton Shire Council, shared that two parties had expressed interest in Carramar and that management control could possibly change in the next couple of months.
Though the sale looks inevitable, the Carramar Carers’ group would not give up their cause, worried that the nursing home’s service standards would drop.
Mr Laugher, though aware of the petition, stood firm. “Our view was at the end of the day that standards of care are governed by the accreditation process regardless of how the services are run and the quality outcome is more important than how many people are actually employed or what they’re being paid,” he said.
