Health services management education in South Australia.
In December 1994 the Australian College of Health Service Executives (SA Branch) sought 'a needs analysis for health management training programs within South Australia'. Although the college was interested in a range of matters, the central issue was whether the current Graduate Diploma in Health Administration (or a similar course) would continue to be provided in Adelaide. The college provided background material and discussions were held with students, the health industry, relevant professional associations and the universities. This commentary sets out some of the background factors and my conclusions, which have been accepted by the South Australian authorities.
