Christchurch Hospital asks families to monitor patients due to healthcare assistant shortage.
Christchurch Hospital asked family members to sit with patients due to a shortage of healthcare assistants on June 22.
This shortage, caused by underfunding and employment freezes, led managers to seek help from families in monitoring patients for confusion or other symptoms.
Al Dietschin from the New Zealand Nurses Organisation said it was inappropriate for families to take on staff roles, while Becky Hickmott, Canterbury's director of nursing, acknowledged staffing issues but noted efforts to ensure patient care remained appropriate.
