This will go, I reckon, for more than a million bucks.
Clinton MaynardHOST
36:04
It has 20Ks on the Speedo.
Clinton MaynardHOST

Righto, coming up in the next hour of the program, the Health Minister Ryan Park on the hospital schmuzzle, Lucy Zelich after 4.30, and I'm going to give you the code word for our $20,000 cash giveaway a little earlier.

This is Sydney Now with Clinton Maynard on 2GB.
Mark LevyHOST
16:00
With the Herald today reporting one in 10 patients now spend 25 and a half hours waiting for a bed on the ward, while 9% virtually give up, say no thanks, we'll just head home.
Mark LevyHOST

Now, the Health Minister in New South Wales, Ryan Park, is holding a press conference as we speak at St George Hospital.
Mark LevyHOST
16:19

Mark LevyHOST
16:31
He said he's been there for over 20 hours with his daughter who's been suffering from seizures.

26 to 10.
Mark LevyHOST
27:13
Now, I want to get out to St George Hospital in just a second.
Mark LevyHOST
27:16
Ironically, that's where the health minister is right now, Ryan Parkey.
Mark LevyHOST
27:19
He's just spoken to the media and he's put the blame for extended wait times right on the federal government's problems with aged care and the NDIS.
Ryan ParkSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
0:48
What we said is that we expect him to go back, have a look at releasing more home care packages so that we're confident as a system that we can get a patient out of a hospital like here at St George back home with the appropriate care they need.
Mark LevyHOST
1:03
Well, look, that's all well and good, right? And with respect to what Ryan Park says, he's right.
Mark LevyHOST
1:08
But at the same time, he has a responsibility as the health minister in New South Wales to ensure that we don't have people waiting in emergency departments for over 20 hours to see a doctor and to wait for a bed.
Mark LevyHOST
1:20
Now, this is only going to get worse when you think about what the federal government is doing with private health insurance rebates for those over 65.
Mark LevyHOST
1:30
And I want to share with you now exclusively here on The Morning Show another example of how bad it is inside our emergency departments.
Mark LevyHOST
1:38
And I hope Ryan Park, once he gets wind of the bloke I'm about to speak to and what his daughter's been through over the last 20 hours, I hope he walks through the doors of the hospital and actually speaks to some of the patients about what they're going through right now.
Mark LevyHOST
1:52
I want to bring in Zoran, who's been in the St George Hospital emergency department with his daughter for quite some time.
Mark LevyHOST
1:59
I've got him on the line.
Michael McLarenHOST
2:21
Because on the one hand, we've recently had the New South Wales government, Labor.
Michael McLarenHOST
2:26
Although, in no way, the Health Minister, Ryan Park, is a decent bloke.
Michael McLarenHOST
2:30
He's not one of these guys that reckons, oh, let's just go and legalise drugs and regulate drugs.
Michael McLarenHOST
2:36
He doesn't strike me as someone who's into that sort of idea.

Clinton MaynardPANELIST
92:03
I'll speak with the New South Wales Health Minister, Ryan Park, about these quite terrible figures that have been released today, but the performance of emergency departments in particular to think that people at Blacktown Hospital are waiting, some of them, 43 hours to be admitted to the hospital.
Clinton MaynardPANELIST
92:17
We'll speak with the Health Minister about that.
Clinton MaynardHOST

And we, we do keep hearing about that, but n- little seems to be doing done to actually address the problem.
Clinton MaynardHOST
0:36
The Health Minister is Ryan Park.
Clinton MaynardHOST
0:38
Thank you for doing your time, Minister.
Ryan ParkGUEST
0:40
Thank you.
Ryan ParkGUEST
4:13
But we're looking right now at everything, uh, is on the table in terms of addressing this because we can't have a situation where that number goes to 1,700, and that's what's projected for the middle of next year.
Ryan ParkGUEST
4:24
That's just not feasible for us and would have catastrophic outcomes on our state's public hospitals.
Clinton MaynardHOST
4:29
I'm with the Health Minister, Ryan Park.
Clinton MaynardHOST
4:31
I, I wanna raise some cultural issues with you, Ryan.
Michael McLarenHOST
9:05
Uh, you've...
Michael McLarenHOST
9:06
And New South Wales Health Minister Ryan Park, you disagree on this issue.
Michael McLarenHOST
9:08
You certainly agree on this one, uh, that more has to be done from the Commonwealth with aged care bed funding, because we've got a lot of people that should be in aged care that are sitting in state hospitals, and you guys are footing the bill.
Tim NichollsGUEST
9:20
Yep.
Clinton MaynardHOST
27:56

Clinton MaynardHOST
28:00

Clinton MaynardHOST
28:06
So there are changes.
Clinton MaynardHOST
28:07
And of course, the Northern Beaches Hospital is now controlled by the state government.
Eloise MassaSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
28:37
And speaking up, choosing not to be complacent, it's become a vocation for me.
Clinton MaynardHOST
28:44
Eloise Massa with Ben Fordham this morning.
Clinton MaynardHOST
28:45
So she's not running as a Labor Party candidate, despite the fact that she's obviously had a good relationship with Chris Minns and Ryan Park.
Clinton MaynardHOST
28:52
She will run as an independent in the seat of Manly.
