MUMN alleges illegal immigrants are self-harming to be admitted to MCH

The Malta Union for Midwives and Nurses (MUMN) said that it cannot tolerate its members being in more danger in Mount Carmel Hospital because of the “abuse” they suffer at the hands of the illegal immigrants in the detention centres. It alleged migrants were self-harming in order to be taken to Mount Carmel Hospital, and thus, occupying much-needed beds. Later, the union announced that these migrants were being relocated after its complaint. The Commissioner for Mental Health reacted to this saying that it is “grossly unfair” to allege ulterior motives for admission, whilst the Malta Refugee Council called MUMN’s statement “insensitive” to the desperation and fear the migrants live in.

MUMN Declares Victory

The Court has limited the industrial action by the Malta Union of Midwives and Nurses, ordering to withdraw directives which were deemed detrimental to the patient’s wellbeing. On Friday, the court ruled that the industrial action ordered by the union can go ahead except for directives which could place patients’ health at risk. Mr Justice Robert Mangion presiding over the First Hall of the Civil Court also disallowed any action that was to be taken by nurses working at St Vincent De Paul and Karin Grech Rehabilitation Hospital.

I joined MUMN in 1999, practically from nearly it's inception!. Throughout the years MUMN has been pivotal in achieving so many groundbreaking milestones for the benefit of nurses and midwives and most importantly to safeguard our beloved patients. MUMN has evolved so much along the years from the introduction of the Florence Nightingale Benevolent Fund, to the Learning Institute for Healthcare Professionals, the expansion to cater for other healthcare professionals and many more is yet to come. Nowadays MUMN has established itself as the most influential and respectable union within the health sector and beyond.

ECG Technician
ECG Technicians have never really been acknowledged by any governing bodies until recently. Having seen MUMN grow and achieve for nurses and midwives, we did not hesitate to join when the opportunity arose to join. Being a union dedicated to only health care professionals, we could only see benefits coming our way. In fact, we were the first profession outside nurses and midwives to join MUMN. With the help of MUMN we already managed to achieve our first steps into becoming a well recognized and organized profession, such as good academic recognition and structure to our profession, and hopefully will continue to achieve more in the coming years. Thank you MUMN

Physiotherapist
As Physiotherapists we joined MUMN as we were not satisfied with our previous union. Since joining MUMN we have been given more attention and specifically to our needs as a profession. MUMN always listened to our difficulties and worked to address them in a timely manner just like any other profession they represent both individually and collectively. As a profession we were also given our own platform by creating our own group committee.
