Welcome and please enjoy!
Upcoming Meetings:
September 24th, 2020
The next meeting of the SAMHS will be held on Thursday, 24th of
September at the Royal Society Rooms, Kintore Ave, Adelaide
at 5:30 pm.
While it will not be quite a Grand Resumption of SAMHS meetings, we are
pleased to tell you the September meeting will go ahead, albeit, with a
number of changes. Our guest speaker will be Professor Guy Maddern, who will
reflect on "now and then" relationships between hospitals and universities.
Due to COVID restrictions, we are limited to 40 attendees (determined by the
size of the room) and we must comply with social distancing, signage, hand
hygiene requirements and keep contact tracing records. Food and drink will
NOT be offered at the meeting. Initially, we are only inviting members to
attend, but if we have fewer than 40 acceptances, we will offer non-members
some places, too.
Please reply to the Secretary to register attendance or an apology: A list will be compiled for both.
Also, our SAMHS Annual General Meeting would normally be the August meeting,
but we will hold the AGM in October this year. A separate
email about the AGM inviting nominations for the 2020-2021 SAMHS committee
and executive positions will be sent later.
Professor Guy Maddern, AO - "Hospital vs University: 125 years on, has anything changed?"
