Tasmanian
parents who need support with new babies are missing out because of inadequate
services outside of Hobart.
Labor
Leader Rebecca White said with only one public mother and baby unit in the
state, new parents are left to struggle.
“Supporting
new parents is vital to ensure babies get the best start in life.
“Parents
facing difficulties with a new baby should be able to get the help they need,
regardless of where they live in Tasmania. Families should not have to compete
for access to support after the birth of a child.
