Lee Rhiannon urges Rees to use COAG to push for more Health Funding

Greens MP and health spokesperson Lee Rhiannon says Premier Nathan Rees must use tomorrow's COAG meeting to push for more funding for primary health, particularly for early intervention and prevention services.

Referring to the crisis facing acute hospital care identified yesterday in the report by Commissioner Peter Garling SC, Ms Rhiannon said "The Garling Report focused on acute care hospital services but the crisis will not dissipate unless the Rees government invests heavily in health prevention and early intervention services,"

"Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's offer to the states of $450 million for preventative health is a start, but much more is needed to arrest pressures on the NSW hospital system.

"2008 figures from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare show that NSW spending on public health as a proportion of total recurrent health spending is in decline, with NSW below the national average." Ms Rhiannon said.

  3. People talk themselves out of exercising so easily,
    and the opposite can be so easy. Blowing off some
    steam with a quick round of solo travel fitness in the morning can
    make your whole day brighter. Get your heart rate up with
    a quick burst of fast movement.

  5. Make a list of your nutrition chart involving
    juice and fruits at the top followed by green vegetables and milk products.
    It will help the prospective health and fitness aspirant
    keep pace with the ever evolving world of fitness.
    Having some company can also make the fitness session more fun.

  10. If a wide search is made on the internet, services can be utilized easily that are provided by them.
    It’s interesting how stars get annoyed when the paparazzi takes pictures of them.
    Every now and then, new stars emerge and disappear in the blink of an eye and every smallest detail about the same becomes important celebrity news.
