About emergency departments in South Australia
South Australia has 5 major public hospitals with emergency departments reporting live wait time data. Data is sourced from SA Health and updated every 30 minutes.
Wait times vary significantly by time of day, day of the week, and season. Winter months (June to August) typically see the longest waits due to flu season. Triage category 4 and 5 patients (semi-urgent and non-urgent) experience the longest waits, often several hours.
Need a script, certificate, or referral?
You may not need to visit the ED. Book a bulk billed telehealth consult with a FRACGP-qualified GP.
