GPcare, the new after hours general practice for the Hills community based at Mt Barker Hospital, was officially launched by Hon Alexander Downer MP on Friday, August 18th.

Mr Downer was opening the service following its commencement on August 1st on behalf of the Commonwealth Government which is providing almost 3 years funding to enable the community initiative to be implemented.

Did you know that although Northern Adelaide Hills Health Service is funded by the Government the hospitals are still owned by our community?

To protect our asset and to oversee the development and direction of both the Mount Pleasant and Gumeracha Hospitals and Glenview Homes we have a Board of Governors consisting of Trevor Manning Chairman, Elaine Work Deputy, and Board Members Harry Drewry, Valda Hannah, Colin Fergusson and Leanne Barker.
