📢 Help Us Advocate for Better Access to Day Chemo & Day Procedures 🌟

We’re looking to connect with patients who are currently stuck on public waiting lists, especially those waiting for day procedures or who are travelling long distances just to receive day chemotherapy.

If this sounds like you (or someone you know), we’d love to hear from you.

💡 Why we’re gathering volunteers
We’re working on an initiative to highlight how shifting more elective procedures (including all day chemotherapy) into day hospitals could make a meaningful difference. Day hospitals can perform these treatments at around half the cost of overnight hospitals. If more care moved into this setting, it could help reduce pressure on private health insurance premiums and create a more efficient system overall.

At the same time, we believe public patients shouldn’t be left waiting months when many of these procedures could be done safely and promptly in day hospitals. Your stories can help demonstrate why this matters.

🤝 How you can help
We’re seeking volunteers willing to share their experience (big or small) to support this advocacy work. Your voice could help drive change toward a system that is fairer, faster, and more affordable.

If you’re interested in being involved or would like more information, please get in touch with Jannette at 0419 204 059 or admin@executivecounsel.com.au

Together, we can push for solutions that truly put patients first. 💙
