ACCYPN Supports Letter to Prime Minister Scott Morrison #KIDSOFFNAURU
The Australian College of Mental Health Nurses invites all Australian nurses and midwives to join us in calling for Prime Minister Scott Morrison and all MPs in Federal Parliament to evacuate over 85 children and their families off Nauru and Manus Island. The AMA (Australian Medical Association), Medecins Sans Frontiers (MSF) and a host of other peak NGO and health professional groups have already advocated to the government on behalf of this vulnerable group of people. We believe that nurses and midwives, as the most trusted health professional group and the largest clinical health workforce in Australia, have a responsibility to add our voice to the calls for the humane treatment of the refugees on Nauru.
Together, we can make a difference.
