A representative from Austin Health stated that the situation is being treated with utmost seriousness. They emphasised the commitment to the safety and well-being of their staff, having already made a formal report to Victoria Police regarding the issue. As the investigation is ongoing, further details about the nature of the report are not available for public disclosure.
