 Pauline RICHARDS (Cranbourne) (10:23): Of course an urgent care clinic or a community hospital does not operate without an amazing workforce. So today, on International Nurses Day, I am going to take the opportunity to thank the extraordinary nurses who live in my community and who serve my community. Our nursing workforce – nurses and midwives – are top-notch clinicians, and I am grateful every day for their service. Thank you to the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation, thank you to our nursing and midwife professionals – we are very fortunate.
