In some great news, the Union has been informed that pathology has been saved at Alexandra Hospital and the laboratory will remain open until at least September 2018. The Union publicly backed the hospital to ensure that there was a way for the hospital to continue to deliver their clinical services following the announcement that Clinical Labs was closing the lab and walking away.
It was evident that Clinical Labs was in breach of its contract with the hospital. The Union strongly supports the hospital in enforcing the contract, and Clinical Labs has acknowledged its contract responsibilities and has announced it will keep pathology services at Alexandra Hospital open.
