Report on health in SA: did we feature?

Thursday 10 July 2008

South Australia: Our Health and Health ServicesThe State Department of Health has just published South Australia: Our Health and Health Services 2008.

It’s 262 pages long and your committee has not time to dig into it. We’d love to know how the report directly, obliquely, or by sheer omission deals with ME/CFS, Fibromyalgia and MCS.

If you’ve got the time and inclination, have a look at it and let us know.

The Department of Health says:

South Australia: Our Health and Health Services 2008 is the first publication to provide a comprehensive picture of the health status of South Australians. The report uses population health information and an extensive array of other health and demographic data to portray our current state of health and to illustrate how risk factors associated with lifestyle choices, socioeconomic circumstances and environmental conditions can lead to ill health. The report also contains information on the health services and facilities that serve the people of South Australia and the initiatives – both underway and planned – that will lead to improvements in the health and wellbeing of our people.”

Here’s the report:
