We are grateful to Kate Abraham for her incredible support of the St Andrew’s Hospital Foundation and our Wellbeing Centre.

This year, Kate will take on three ultra marathons to help raise funds for programs that support patients beyond clinical care.

As the founder of PLANT BASED LIFE 🌿 and Nourish Experiences and a valued contributor to the Wellbeing Centre, Kate has seen firsthand the impact of a holistic approach to care. From cooking and creativity to movement and connection, these programs provide a supportive space for people navigating a cancer diagnosis.

Kate’s commitment is a powerful reflection of the community that surrounds St Andrew’s, and the difference it can make.

If you would like to support Kate’s journey, you can find more information and donate via the link in our bio.

When we listen to our patients, one thing comes through time and time again, the environment matters.

From the sunlight streaming through hospital windows, to quiet walks through our open gardens, these moments play a meaningful role in recovery.

One patient recently shared the joy of seeing the sun after surgery, followed by a visit from family and a walk in the gardens with their young daughter. Another spoke about how important it is to stay active, spend time outdoors, and enjoy moments with grandchildren.

At St Andrew’s, we’re proud that our wide-open spaces and beautiful grounds are more than just surroundings, they’re part of the healing journey.

At St Andrew’s Hospital, we are collaborating with our experienced breast care nurse, Chloe, to develop a new series of patient education videos.

Informed by patient feedback, particularly the desire for continued access to the same level of guidance and reassurance experienced within the hospital environment, these resources are designed to support patients once they return home.

The series will address key aspects of care, including post-operative drain management and preparation for chemotherapy, providing clear, consistent, and clinically aligned information that complements in-hospital education.

By enabling patients to revisit this information at their own pace, we aim to enhance understanding, reduce uncertainty, and support confidence throughout recovery.

We will let you know when the content is available to view on our YouTube channel.

There is something quietly powerful about creating.

At the St Andrew’s Wellbeing Centre, expressive arts sessions offer a gentle, supportive space for members to explore emotions, experiences and connection through creativity.

Using a range of accessible mediums, from paint and collage to drawing and writing, participants are encouraged to express themselves in their own way. There is no expectation and no right or wrong outcome, just a focus on the process and what it can offer.

No artistic experience is needed. Just a willingness to explore, reflect and try something new.

These sessions are supported by a dedicated team that helps create a welcoming and inclusive environment for all involved.

Patients receiving care at St Andrew’s Hospital or in the Chemotherapy Suite are eligible for a complimentary two-year membership to the Wellbeing Centre, with access to programs like this that support living well alongside treatment.

This National Advance Care Planning Week (16–22 March), Australians are encouraged to pause and reflect on what matters most, as we embrace the theme “Your story, your choice.”

Advance care planning is a way to think ahead about your future healthcare and the kind of care you would want if you were unable to speak for yourself.

By sharing your wishes and preferences in advance, you help guide your loved ones and healthcare team to make decisions that reflect what matters most to you.

Taking the time to plan can offer reassurance for both you and those close to you, helping ensure your voice is respected even in difficult moments.

At St Andrew’s Hospital, where care matters most, these conversations are an important part of supporting patients and families with compassion, dignity and respect.

For 90 years, St Andrew’s Hospital has proudly served the South Australian community as an independent not-for-profit hospital.

What does that mean? It means every dollar we earn goes straight back where it belongs, into patient care, the development of our people, and the services and facilities that support our community.

From investing in leading technology and innovative care, to supporting the growth of our staff, our focus has always been the same: delivering the highest standard of care for the people we serve.

It’s a model built on purpose, not profit and one that allows us to keep putting our community first, today and for generations to come.

Thank you to our staff, specialists, volunteers, donors and partners who continue to shape the St Andrew’s legacy of compassion, integrity and excellence.

Something special happens around the kitchen table at the St Andrew’s Wellbeing Centre.

Each week, Kate Abraham from and leads plant-based cooking demonstrations and tastings for people living with cancer.

These sessions share practical ideas for nourishing meals while creating space to pause, connect and enjoy good food in a supportive environment.

With ingredients generously donated by Frewville Foodland, and the involvement of St Andrew’s Hospital volunteers who assist each week, the sessions are a true team effort. Kate’s support also goes beyond the kitchen, running ultra marathons to help raise funds for the Wellbeing Centre.

Patients receiving care at St Andrew’s Hospital or in the Chemotherapy Suite are eligible for a complimentary two-year membership to the Wellbeing Centre, where support is available to help people live well alongside treatment.

This International Women’s Day, we reflect on the women who shape St Andrew’s Hospital every day.

In 1936, Sister Janet Hay founded St Andrew’s Hospital. She was a nurse, a war veteran, and a woman driven to create a new standard of care.
Her courage reminds us why access to education, opportunity and leadership matters. Because when women are empowered, they shape institutions, communities and futures.

Today, that legacy continues through the many women who make up our hospital community. This video highlights just a few of them across different parts of St Andrew’s, from nurses and clinicians to ancillary staff, volunteers and beyond.

On International Women’s Day, we also recognise the women across our wider hospital community. Our patients, families, suppliers and partners who contribute to the care, connection and collaboration that make St Andrew’s what it is.

In healthcare, balancing the scales means removing barriers to care, expanding access to opportunity, and creating workplaces where women are supported to lead.

We thank the women of St Andrew’s today. We thank those who paved the way before them. And we thank those who will follow in their footsteps. Your dedication, leadership and care continue to shape the future of our hospital community.
