🚨 When equipment fails, nurses don’t get a second chance.

Reports from Cairns Hospital show:
❌ An ECG machine unavailable during an emergency
❌ A backup machine not charged
❌ A fire extinguisher not ready when needed — with a nurse injured stepping in

Minutes matter. Lives depend on it.

This isn’t about blame.
It’s about safety. Systems. Accountability.

👩‍⚕️ Nurses are asking the real question:
How many “near misses” before something worse happens?

👇 We want to hear from you:
Have you experienced equipment issues on shift?
YES / NO / TOO OFTEN TO COUNT

Comment or email: hotline@redunion.com.au

A nurses’ union revealed reports of equipment failures or unavailability during emergencies at a Far North Queensland hospital, warning that failing to maintain hospital equipment could be a matter of life or death.
