Another claim has emerged just days after Blue Care admitted to care issues at its Pioneer Lodge Facility in Bundaberg. The Queensland Nurses and Midwives’ Union says an elderly Blue Care resident lay with a broken hip for 24 hours before an ambulance was called. The QNMU alleges the 93-year-old woman fell at Pioneer Lodge but did not receive medical attention for a broken hip until a day later. They claim the woman was in severe pain following the fall on January 14 but did not receive medical attention due to chronic understaffing. The woman’s injury wasn’t noticed until family arrived for a visit on January 15. The QNMU says staff and family are unwilling to comment publicly due to fears they will upset Blue Care management.
