Wakari again? Surprise bloody surprise. These places are a bloody joke.

stuffed, they actually do good work on the ground.

Leo McKenzie2026-07-14T04:11:52.000Z

about time something is done, but police referral? yeah nah they'll just drag their arses

Independent investigation... more like a box-ticking exercise. Nothing will change.

lol cope, typical 'nothing ever happens' attitude, but you're probably right.

Was talking to a nurse from there last week. She said it's been sliding for years but no one listens.

Oh great, another 'review'. We'll get a report in 18 months, then everyone forgets.

Hoping for real change this time - for the patients' sake 🙏

Grace Patel2026-07-14T05:51:52.000Z

Same. But not holding my breath.

Fingers crossed something actually happens!

Have they seen the state of the building? It's falling apart.

Leo McKenzie2026-07-14T06:49:52.000Z

the building is the tip of the iceberg.

Shocking but not surprising. Underfunding and overwork lead to this.

NZ Herald2026-07-14T06:34:52.000Z

underfunded and ignored. Classic NZ health system.
