Have your say on a new Women's and Children's Hospital The proposal is for a new Women’s and Children’s Hospital to be collocated with the new Royal Adelaide Hospital within the South Australian Health and Biomedical Precinct on North Terrace. While planning for the new Royal Adelaide Hospital, the State Government received a lot of feedback about the importance of collocating the Women’s and Children’s Hospital with the new Royal Adelaide Hospital. We are responding to this feedback and now invite you to have a say on this proposal. This is a long term vision for the future of the South Australian health system. If collocated in 2023, as proposed, the Women’s and Children’s Hospital would maintain its own entrance, name and culture, and paediatric services would be separated from adult services in keeping with international best-practice. For more information about this proposal, please visit www.newWCH.sa.gov.au. We would like to hear your thoughts on the proposal, with public consultation open until Sunday, 12 January 2014.
