A Continuing History of the Adelaide Children’s Hospital 1976 – 1989

A Continuing History of the Adelaide Children’s Hospital 1976 – 1989, is an important piece of missing history.

It was researched and written by Dr Brian Fotheringham, a former Medical Superintendent of the Adelaide Children's Hospital and current chair of the Women’s and Children’s Hospital Heritage and History Committee.

The previous history of the Hospital, ‘The Adelaide Children’s Hospital 1876 – 1976’, was written by Margaret Barbalet to commemorate the Hospital’s 100 year anniversary.

The new book details a record of events and personalities at the Adelaide Children’s Hospital over its next thirteen years as a single entity until it amalgamated with the Queen Victoria Hospital to form the Women’s and Children’s Hospital.
