About

The Hospital Research Foundation was established in 1965 to raise funds to support the world class medical research conducted at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

The Queen Elizabeth Hospital is a 350 bed public hospital which provides a comprehensive range of specialist and diagnostic treatment services to a population base of approximately 250,000 people, living primarily in the western suburbs of Adelaide, South Australia.

The Queen Elizabeth Hospital provides health services by means of inpatient, outpatient and emergency services using the most modern available methods of assessment and treatment in medical, surgical, mental health, allied health and other techniques. Emphasis is placed on continuity of care before and after hospitalisation and care is coordinated by a multidisciplinary team.

Testimonials

"Dry July is a wonderful initiative that helps to improve the day-to-day lives of our cancer patients. So far, funds have enabled TQEH to provide more comfortable chairs for patients and visitors, art to brighten up the wards and TVs, web-enabled laptops, game consoles and DVDs to help pass the time. I encourage everyone to support Dry-July this year."
