Nurses and midwives have always stood up against hate and violence to protect our patients, our communities, and each other. This matters now more than ever.

The nursing community has been shaken by the fatal shooting of intensive care nurse Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, USA. Pretti was a 37-year-old ICU nurse at the Veterans Affairs Health Care System who cared deeply for his patients and community. His death has sparked widespread mourning and condemnation from nurses, healthcare workers and the global community.

This tragedy, together with recent acts of hate and violence both locally and globally is a stark reminder that healthcare workers, people who devote their lives to healing, are not always protected.

Right now, nurses, midwives and healthcare professionals around the world are risking their lives to deliver care in conflict zones. Hospitals are being struck, and patients are being left without life-saving treatment. Attacks on health workers are a breach of international humanitarian law and undermine the core values of healthcare — neutrality, humanity, and protection for the sick and wounded.

Healthcare must never be a target.

That’s why we are calling on the Australian Government to:
1️⃣ Continue to press for full protection of healthcare workers under the Geneva Conventions, ensuring these international laws are upheld in every conflict.

2️⃣ Use Australia’s voice on the global stage to demand accountability and safety for nurses, midwives and all those who provide essential care.

We must stand together as a profession and as a community that believes in peace, dignity and protection for every person — especially those who care for others.

Health workers deserve protection. Peace deserves our voice.

On IDM2026, we will push all together to call on governments and decision-makers to invest and recognise midwives as vital healthcare providers, to support education, skills development and resources, and to promote strong midwifery leadership.

Stay tuned for the toolkit and the programme of !

What great news! The ANMF NT are looking forward to seeing how the NT moves forward with this additional funding.

The ANMF welcomes today’s landmark National Cabinet agreement delivering record funding for public hospitals and further action to strengthen Medicare.

This historic deal includes an additional $25 billion for public hospitals — taking total Commonwealth funding to $219.6 billion over the next five years — helping ease pressure on overstretched services and support nurses, midwives, patients and communities.

We also welcome continued investment in Medicare, including expanded bulk billing, Urgent Care Clinics, Medicare Mental Health Clinics, cheaper medicines, and aged care reforms — all critical to reducing emergency department demand and improving access to care.

A strong, well-funded public health system and Medicare at its centre are essential to ensuring every Australian can get the care they need, when they need it. The ANMF looks forward to working with governments to ensure this funding delivers real outcomes on the ground.
