HOW NPAA FORMED

NPAA stemmed from a discussion between a group of nurses voicing their annoyance at the ANMF being vocal about their Labor oriented ‘opinion’. Whether their opinion was right or wrong is irrelevant, and not the issue. We have always supported their right to their own political opinions. As the polls and frequently rotating door of the premiers and prime ministers office displays, people have different political opinions. The nurses’ frustration was that an organisation which existed at the time as their only option for Professional Indemnity Insurance, support and protection, were happy to take their membership money to battle for political causes which quite possibly at least half of their members disagreed with.
