The Women's and Children's Hospital is located on King William Road in North Adelaide, Australia.
It is one of the major hospitals in Adelaide and is a teaching hospital of the University of Adelaide, the University of South Australia and Flinders University.
It was created through the amalgamation of the Queen Victoria Hospital and Adelaide Children's Hospital in March 1989.[1] The new (in name) hospital occupies the site of the former Adelaide Children's Hospital.
The hospital is part of the Children, Youth and Women's Health Service along with the Child and Youth Health.
The Children's and adolescents' wards cater for all paediatric specialities. The women's wards cater for antenatal, gynaecology, neonatal, and postnatal disciplines.
The Women's & Children's Hospital Foundation is the primary charity for the hospital and exists to raise money and invest initiatives that support the care and future health of South Australia's women, babies and children.
The hospital is part of the wider Women's and Children's Health Network, which includes the Child and Family Health Service, Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service, Metropolitan Youth Health, Women's Health, Yarrow Place, Torrens House and Helen Mayo House.
The official Facebook Page of the Women's and Children's Hospital and Health Network is @WCHNetwork.
A new hospital will be built next to the New Royal Adelaide Hospital, near the river Torrens.[2]
