The restructure of top jobs at Royal Darwin Hospital and Palmerston Regional Hospital is continuing, NT Health has confirmed.
It is understood the process is still in a consultation phase, with changes likely to be announced in the coming months.
In July it was reported four dozen management roles would be affected in the shuffle.
“Consultation for the Royal Darwin and Palmerston Hospital (RDPH) divisional restructure is ongoing,” a NT Health spokeswoman said.
“The executive team is currently reviewing feedback provided via consultation sessions and written submissions from a range of staff and stakeholder groups.”
The he process would not result in any job losses, with current staff all keeping their clinical roles, it has been confirmed.
The restructure is being done as part of an “integration to build a modern, dynamic and sustainable health system”, according to the NT Government.
The initial reports were slammed by the Opposition and health leaders.
