Launceston General Hospital Community Recovery Initiative - Co-Chairs' Final Report - 16 November 2022

The Department of Health commenced the Launceston General Community Recovery Initiative to begin to rebuild trust in the Launceston General Hospital (LGH) following the hearings for the Commission of Inquiry into the Tasmanian Government’s Responses to Child Sexual Abuse in Institutional Settings.

Respected community members from the northern region, Elizabeth Daly and Malcolm White have been overseeing the recovery initiative as independent Co-Chairs.

Mrs Daly and Mr White conducted Community forums to listen to the northern community and understand what the community believed to be important to rebuild their trust in the LGH.

After considering the suggestions raised at the forums, the Co-Chairs have now produced a Report with recommendations around the themes of Leadership, Communications, and Training and Protocols.
