The Queensland state government has been warned the Cairns Private Hospital is on the brink of collapse and if it does close its doors the public system ‘simply wouldn’t cope’.
The Queensland Government has issued a warning about the possible collapse of Cairns Private Hospital, a major medical facility in the state. The hospital, which opened in 2006, has been struggling financially for years and is now on the brink of closure.
The Queensland Government has been monitoring the situation closely and recently issued a warning that if the hospital does close its doors, it could have serious implications for public health in the region. The government has also taken steps to try and prevent this from happening by providing additional funding for upgrades to the facility.
However, despite these efforts, medical professionals are concerned that this may not be enough to save Cairns Private Hospital from closure. Obstetricians have warned that if it does close its doors it could lead to a similar crisis as occurred at Gladstone Hospital earlier this year when maternity services were suspended due to lack of funding.
At present, there is still hope that Cairns Private Hospital can be saved but time is running out and urgent action needs to be taken if it is going to survive. It remains unclear what will happen next but one thing is certain: if Cairns Private Hospital closes its doors, it will have serious implications for public health in the region.
