Cyclone Alfred & Paramedic Housing Issue
Join host Nick and APA (NSW) Delegate at Yamba Ambulance Station, Tim McEwen, as they tackle two pressing issues for paramedics in NSW: the looming threat of Cyclone Alfred and a long-standing housing crisis.

Key Points:
• Impact of Cyclone Alfred on northern NSW operations.
• $10M boost in government funding for regional paramedic housing
• Personal housing stories & current staffing challenges
• The importance and impact of reporting industrial issues
