Stop the Cuts to Royal Prince Alfred Hospital Midwives

Sign our petition to stop the cuts to midwives at Royal Prince Alfred (RPA) Hospital Sydney. 

Inner West families deserve access to world-class maternity services, and our nurses and midwives deserve job security. 

Right now, 15-20 full-time midwifery positions are on the chopping block at Royal Prince Alfred (RPA) Hospital here in Sydney. These senseless cuts could also see nine beds in the postnatal ward close as part of the sweeping changes outlined by the Sydney Local Health District. 

We know NSW nurses and midwives are chronically short-staffed and underfunded, with the lowest wages in the country. This move is the latest in a string of bad decisions that could deliver poorer health outcomes for parents and babies.

The NSW Labor Government cannot allow these cuts to proceed. 

Please sign our petition calling on the NSW Health Minister to intervene and prevent these dangerous cuts to midwifery staffing at RPA Hospital. 

To the NSW Minister for Health,

We call on the NSW Government to intervene to stop the dangerous cuts to midwifery staffing and beds at Royal Prince Alfred (RPA) Hospital.
