"The Minister has sat on his hands & let the situation with DHBs get away from him. He needs to prioritise sorting his mess out to ensure New Zealanders aren’t put at risk come 29 April.” - bit.ly/2UAffoq @DavidClarkNZ @minhealthnz #Strike #Doctors #NewZealand

If you are in Christchurch, please stay safe and our thoughts are with you. Please feel free to get in touch with us if you need. 2/2

Christchurch hospital is currently in lockdown. The DHB is deciding who they need. If you aren't currently at work, please DON’T go to work. Within 1/2 hour, the DHB will have decided who is needed and will contact you. 1/2

When doctors, nurses, physios, anaesthetic technicians, pharmacists, midwives, physicists, ambulance workers, perfusionists and psychologists are all on strike... @minhealthnz @jacindaardern @DavidClarkNZ #NZRDA #FairDeal #Doctors #NewZealand

This message written by one of our RMOs asking for the Government to step up and protect our resident doctors. All we're asking for is a fair deal. @minhealthnz @jacindaardern @DavidClarkNZ #NZRDA #WellBeing #Doctors #NewZealand

The DHBs have presented a mandate from their CEs to destroy any recent progress made in bargaining. The question is: why is the Minister of Health @DavidClarkNZ @minhealthnz allowing this to continue? bit.ly/2THcalu #NZRDA #WellBeing #Doctors #Strike #NewZealand

"Alarm bells should ring when some of the country's most skilled working people are taking to the streets to strike" - bit.ly/2EG7xzP #NZRDA #WellBeing #Doctors #Strike #NewZealand

Silence never wins rights. They are not handed out, they are fought for. Well done on yet another effective strike! It's been great to see so many resident doctors picketing and getting involved in community projects across the country. #NZRDA #Doctor #Strike #NewZealand

A resident doctor shares four days of a 10-day week to explain that wanting a decent roster that addresses fatigue and burnout shouldn't be a revolutionary idea in 2019 - bit.ly/2NzrkUm #NZRDA #Doctor #Diary #NewZealand

Resident Doctors in Invercargill ran a picket line outside the hospital yesterday morning and today they went out to volunteer with the Department of Conservation by planting over 500 trees for one of their replanting projects. #NZRDA #Doctors #Strike #Invercargill #NewZealand

Resident Doctors in the Bay of Plenty have been helping the Aongatete Forest Project Team by clearing the forest and tracks during the strike today. #NZRDA #Doctors #Strike #BayofPlenty #NewZealand

The fourth 48 hour RDA strike begins tomorrow. All welcome to join pickets tomorrow morning across the country - our members would appreciate your presence at a picket line to show the DHBs we are standing up for workers' rights! #NZRDA #Doctors #Strike #Picket #NewZealand
