Health Review

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:15): My question is to the Minister for Health. Will the Noarlunga emergency service be nurse led?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:15): We still have to do work on the model, but I do know that there are nurse-led emergency clinics around the world. In fact, I understand that there is one in Perth and one in the ACT and that it is a very successful model. But, obviously, we will be guided by the health needs of the community in the south as we refine the model.
