Hospital Staff

1270 Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (11 September 2019). When is the review of security at country hospitals due to report back to the Minister?

1. Will the minister publicly release a copy of any reports or recommendations arising from the review?

The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart—Minister for Energy and Mining): The Minister for Health and Wellbeing has advised:

The Department for Health and Wellbeing has undertaken Security Risk Reviews at country hospital sites, including Meningie and Whyalla. The results are shared with relevant stakeholders to support a safe workplace for SA Health staff. These reviews are site specific, and so there is not a single overarching report.

Information relating to security at SA Health sites will be shared with the necessary officers and stakeholders, but it is not intended that it be released more broadly.
