  7. Demand for health care services is increasing at a time when there is an international shortage of medical and nursing staff. It is increasingly difficult to recruit GPs to work in country areas. While South Australia has succeeded in recruiting health professionals in recent years, we know recruitment will become more difficult in particular specialties, such as obstetrics and intensive care.

New Royal Adelaide Hospital The new hospital will incorporate the services of the current Royal Adelaide Hospital (RAH), and will assume some of the more complex services from The Queen Elizabeth Hospital (TQEH).
