South Australia Premier Peter Malinauskas excitedly reminisced a phone call he had with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese discussing state hospital upgrades following his announcement of a $400 million upgrade of Flinder’s Medical Centre today.
Over the next few weeks 26 new acute inpatient beds will be opened as part of the government’s mid-year goal to open 120 new beds, new surgical spaces, extra MRI and CT scanners in the state’s second largest hospital. “12 months ago, I asked the then opposition leader Anthony Albanese to contemplate joining with my government to actually deliver that step change,” Mr Malinauskas said in a media conference on Thursday.
“I remember well Prime Minister exactly where I was when we had a phone call late in the evening, and you were all too accommodating to make sure that South Australia could partner with a federal Labor government to deliver on this $400 million upgrade.”
