Dr surveys community

Dr surveys community

ROBE and Lucindale GP Dr David Senior is “still waiting” for the Limestone Coast Local Health Network (LCLHN) to consult with him, his patients, and the Lucindale community.

Two weeks has passed since health minister Chris Picton ordered the LCLHN and its Riverland counterpart to form working groups to consult with their communities.

Rural nursing services at Lucindale, Tintinara and Coonalpyn were slashed without consultation, creating a health crisis for the sick and elderly. Especially affected are those with cancer, MS, stroke victims and heart conditions – people who cannot drive.
