Construction will begin next week on the new $91 million, 50-bed Acute Mental Health Unit (AMHU) at the heart of the West Moreton Health’s current expansion.
Minister for Health and Ambulance Services Yvette D’Ath said construction company BESIX Watpac had been appointed as the main works contractor to build the three-storey mental health unit.
“The Palaszczuk Government has invested more than $146.3 million over 5 years for Stage 1 of the master-planned expansion of Ipswich Hospital and related health services to meet the needs of the fast-growing region,” Minister D’Ath said.
A nurse who was accused of lifting up her skirt and showing her underwear to a colleague at a work Chirstmas party has successfully appealed her punishment.
Nurse Emma Hayes organised the ED Xmas in July Party for her Ipswich Hospital Emergency Department colleagues at a public venue on July 18, 2020.
After the event, Queensland Health alleged Ms Hayes inappropriately lifted her skirt and did not behave as was expected of a West Moreton Health employee.
Ms Hayes appealed the disciplinary action and Queensland Industrial Relations Commissioner Minna Knight concluded the allegations are unsubstantiated .
