QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE
Ms SHARKIE (Mayo) (15:13): My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Aged Care and Seniors. In 2022 there were 60 older South Australians stuck in Adelaide hospitals waiting for residential aged care. As of yesterday, there were 370 stranded—more than a 515 per cent increase.
State health ministers are frustrated and so are older South Australians. When will the government act and take responsibility for elderly people in hospitals who need to be in aged care?
