Ambulance Ramping Drops in Adelaide | Adelaide News

Adelaide hospitals slash ambulance ramping hours by 26-39% despite rising patient numbers, thanks to a staff-driven “Safe and Connected” model launched in 2025. But while local progress is promising, the Australian Medical Association warns ramping has tripled statewide since 2020 — calling for structural fixes, not bandaids. Doctors urge tackling root causes: aged care gaps, GP access, and mental health surges. They’re pushing for a real-time dashboard to track who’s waiting and why — so resources can be targeted where they’ll do the most good.
