VIC:Baillieu govt sacks Ambulance Vic board
The Victorian government has sacked the board of Ambulance Victoria.
Health Minister DAVID DAVIS made the announcement today, arguing a new board is needed
to turn around the poor financial and operational performance of the organisation.
Former Southern Health chief executive Professor JUST STOELWINDER will chair the new
board, which also includes Liberal CHARLES GILLIES, former Barwon Health chair CLAIRE
HIGGINS and former Ballarat Health Service chair LYNNE MCCLENNAN.
Auditor-General DES PEARSON slammed Ambulance Victoria in a report last year, noting
it's never met its targets for response times to code one emergencies.
