Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Patient safety is at risk at Waikato Hospital, claim doctors, with reports of at least one person not seen by a medic for six days.

The hospital was down 60% on medical registrars last weekend, New Zealand Resident Doctors Association (NZRDA) national secretary Dr Deborah Powell said, and patient care was suffering.
