Please ask Northern Hospital in Melbourne not to discharge a patient back to detention where he was bashed and has a fractured nose among other injuries. Drs need to care for pts post discharge #dontdischargetodetention @ASRC1 @RACSaustralia @racvictoria

Doctors ask Brisbane hospital not to send refugee back to 'unsafe' immigration detention theguardian.com/australia-news… Doctors have undertaken to look after their patients, not the immigration department, and have every right to recommend a safer place of discharge.

Doctors ask Brisbane hospital not to send refugee back to 'unsafe' immigration detention theguardian.com/australia-news… When patients are in hospital they become the doctors' responsibility, which includes ensuring a safe post- discharge location for them.

Doctors, nurses, paramedics and all health professionals note - if your patient is shackled with no valid reason then you are within your professional rights to ask that the restraints be removed. Arriving in Australia without the correct visa 8 years ago is not a valid reason.

A report into immigration detention by the #HumanRightsCommission found hotels were "not appropriate places of detention, given their lack of dedicated facilities and restrictions on access to open space" #australiandetention #refugeerights #HumanRights bit.ly/3h9ejil

People trapped in these centres and APODs cannot request that security stand away, cannot refuse room searches and cannot avoid frequent daily pat downs from guards.

The same people who were advocating for harsh treatment of refugees may well be the people that blame the government if one of their loved ones dies as a result of transmission connected with the centres #COVID19Aus #refugees #GameOver sydneycriminallawyers.com.au/blog/immigrati…

Doctors, Academics please join the call to empty the detention centres and let the refugees live safely with family and community supports. This is a pandemic that must be controlled.
