PLEASE TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONTACT THE PREMIER, ANNA BLIGH AND THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL TO ASK YOUR QUESTIONS. ANYONE INTERESTED IN ASKING A QUESTION, THE WEBSITE ADDRESS IN ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE UNDER: ANNA BLIGH ANSWERS.
PLEASE LET SING KNOW IF YOU EVER RECEIVE AN ANSWER.

PLEASE READ THE POST BELOW. HOW LONG WILL QUEENSLAND HEALTH CONTINUE TO IGNORE AND COVER UP SERIOUS MATTERS EMANATING FROM EVENTIDE NURSING HOME, BRIGHTON?

PASS THE PARCEL and IN DUE COURSE - once again. IS ANYONE REALLY SURPRISED?

Back to Queensland Health it goes - once again.

Serious matters of aged care abuse, sexual assault and neglect at Eventide Nursing Home, Brighton, were reported.

WHAT FOLLOWED? Reprisals, suspensions, employment terminations and employment interference against Queensland Health whistleblowers by those in power. These serious matters were all reported in good faith. All were brought to the attention of Eventide management, the Queensland Police Service, the Department of Health and Ageing, the Crime and Misconduct Commission, NetWork Ten, and other media outlets.

THE FINAL RESULT? Back to Queensland Health to cover-up. What else is new?

Premier: Why does Eventide, Brighton and Queensland Health treat its Whistleblowers so badly for fulfilling their obligations and reporting assault?

Click on document to view.

Premier,
Why does this Whistleblower now receive no more work at Eventide since she reported assault and abuse of residents of Ebbtide House in September 2008?

Why was this Whistleblower's evidence rebuffed by Queensland Health's Ethical Standards Unit and Internal Witness Support Unit in September 2008?

Why are Whistleblowers treated so badly by this government and the staff who abuse, treated so well? The staff members who have abused still remain in their positions and the Whistleblowers either have their employment terminated or have their hours canceled.

Why did the frail, male resident mentioned in the document above have to endure this assault at the hands of a well known abusive nurse?

Why did the female resident (a previous victim of the Bramble House sexual abuser) have to endure further abuse at the hands of this same nurse, when the victim was transferred to Ebbtide House? This abusive nurse was reported many times over many years to Eventide management and remains working in another unit with other vulnerable residents.

Why is it Premier, that Eventide management were informed of the criminal assault of the male resident mentioned in this file note above on the 24 October 2008, not only by the Whistleblower, but by her Industrial Advocate - that this was clearly a case of criminal assault. This matter was never reported by Eventide management to the Queensland Police Service. Why is this Premier?




Why were the events of the death of Mr George Hadgkiss in November 2005, covered up? After enduring so much, after his assault by a male registered nurse, why was nothing ever done about the disturbing way in which George Hadgkiss died?

Why did the Registered Nurse and the Nursing Unit Manager disregard the report by a very distressed Assistant in Nursing about the disturbing events that took place overnight?


PREMIER,
WHY IS THIS GOVERNMENT CONTINUING TO TERMINATE THE EMPLOYMENT OF WHISTLEBLOWERS WHO REPORT ASSAULT, ABUSE AND NEGLECT OF OUR VULNERABLE OLDER AND DISABLED CITIZENS? WHISTLEBLOWERS WHO FULFILL THEIR OBLIGATION UNDER THE AGED CARE ACT ARE STILL BEING SACKED FOR SPEAKING THE TRUTH, BUT THE ABUSERS REMAIN EMPLOYED. WHY IS THIS PREMIER?

SING SUGGESTS, ONCE AGAIN, THAT NOTHING SHORT OF A PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY INTO EVENTIDE'S MANAGEMENT/MISMANAGEMENT OF THESE SERIOUS CASES, WILL SUFFICE.

SING FURTHER SUGGESTS, PREMIER, THAT THIS GOVERNMENT WILL INDEED ANSWER TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC FOR THE DEBACLE THAT IS EVENTIDE AGED CARE FACILITY AND QUEENSLAND HEALTH'S MANAGEMENT/MISMANAGEMENT OF THESE SERIOUS CASES.
