The board of Queensland's troubled Mackay Hospital has been sacked after a scathing report found inadequate care contributed to the deaths of three babies and dozens of women suffered lifelong physical and mental harm.
Health Minister Yvette D'Ath announced the decision on Tuesday, saying an administrator had been appointed.
"I just don't believe that there is the skill set needed across the entire board and a willingness and acknowledgement of what could have been done, and what should have been done over the last few years," she said.
