About us
To date, Amplar Health Home Hospital has successfully delivered care to over 210,000 patients nationally. Through this achievement, we have showcased remarkable levels of patient experience, notable decreases in emergency department visits & significant cost savings for funders.
For the first time in South Australia, a city hotel is proving a location for public hospital patients who no longer require acute care, to rest and recover in comfort at no cost – while freeing up beds for people who need them.
This innovative model of care sees patients relocated from metropolitan and peri-urban hospital beds to the Pullman Adelaide, in their own rooms within the hotel.
