Dr MARJORIE O'NEILL (Coogee) — I rise today to recognise the tireless efforts of all of our medical staff at the Prince of Wales Hospital, the Royal Hospital for Women, and the Sydney Children's Hospital Randwick. Our nurses, doctors, and other allied health workers have been on the front lines throughout this crisis, working extremely hard and deserve the thanks of every person across New South Wales. Our healthcare workers, and the other front-line workers from across the state and the country are heroes. They have worked around the clock to care for us, and to keep us safe during an unprecedented health crisis that has gripped Australia and the world. We have seen this crisis hit other countries so much worse, and the extremely high quality of our healthcare workers is part of the reason why Australia has escaped such effects. I would like to extend my thanks, and the thanks of the Coogee community to these workers. You make our state a better, safer, and healthier place to live, and have given so much personally during this extremely difficult time.
