2) South East Regional Hospital Petition
Hi all,
We are now on the correct path to being heard regarding signatures and advocating for the opening of the sub- acute ward at the South East Regional Hospital( SERH) Bega!
My sincere apologies if you have previously signed the first petition on the change.org platform as your signature will not be counted by the government there.
PLEASE ADD YOUR SIGNATURE USING THE LINK BELOW, if you live in NSW and want to see the sub- acute mental health ward open and utilised.
Please share via all your networks as we need 500 signatures, for the petition to go on record and receive a response from the State minister for Health, and 20,000 signatures for the issue to be debated in Parliament. YES 20,000!
Please spread this e-petition widely… via your Eurobodalla friends and anyone you know who lives in NSW so that we can finally have more services available to support people suffering from mental health. SERH has the ONLY mental Health wards South of Nowra
Kind regards,
Wendy Wait
