Medical research is alive and well in South Australia.

Every $1 spent has an annual return on investment of up to $3.80, significantly boosting our economy and creating highly paid jobs.

That means that medical research is not just life-saving — it's also financially backing our state.

We said that we would bring together a roundtable of frontline workers and experts from across our health system, to identify practical actions to better protect our patients and our staff.

And that’s exactly what today was about.

We’ll now get on with developing immediate and long term actions to create safer workplaces for our health workers - they deserve nothing less than strong actions to keep them safe.

Because everyone deserves to be safe at work, and everyone deserves to be safe in our hospitals.

Voluntary Assisted Dying should be accessible to all South Australians — no matter where they live

Our world leading omega-3 preterm birth prevention program is now helping shape national efforts to prevent premature birth, improving outcomes for babies and families, and giving more children the best possible start in life.

And it started right here, in South Australia.

We are seeing diseases that Australians haven't seen for decades come back into our community.

Vaccination is not just about protecting yourself - it's one of the easiest ways we can protect the most vulnerable in our community, our loved ones, and each other.
