Obviously, the lockdown has changed many aspects of the running of Westmead. Things were getting better up until the covid-19 pandemic.
We were hoping that there would be an end to agency staff and a full complement of full-time staff. Also, there would be more drivers, so there could be more outings.
In addition, replacement physio staffing is required, as the physio has left, and more hours are needed for my son I feel.

Reply from Kerry Walton, Service Manager at Westmead

Thank you for your comments. Westmead remains committed to meeting the needs of all of our residents, we remain dedicated to recruiting a full complement of staff, including for a physio and recently recruited an activities worker who is engaging with all of our residents, please also check out our Facebook page for updates.
