Introducing Tina Grasso, SA Pathology's new Nurse Clinical Educator.

Tina's resume is impressive to say the least. She is a qualified nurse with over fifteen years' experience in nursing education.

Needles can make anyone nervous, but thanks to our new Smileyscope headsets, patients can now choose from a host of VR and meditation programs to help stay calm.

The Smileyscope is available on request at select paediatric collection centres.

SA Pathology performs non-urgent ECG screening at selected collection centres across metropolitan Adelaide, the Adelaide Hills and South Coast.

An ECG or electrocardiogram is a quick, safe and painless test that checks the heart’s rhythm and electrical activity.

We’ve put together a list of helpful tips to help patients prepare for the test.

Research and Innovation

SA Pathology’s passion for research centred on developing better diagnostics to deliver better health care is what attracted Dr Joy Rathjen to the newly created Director of Research and Innovation role.

“Research in SA Pathology is not only excellent and rigorous, but also focused on finding evidence-based solutions for real-life clinical need… I simply want to help this mission in any way I can because it is really important.”

Learn how Joy plans to help our researchers make a big difference for patients and for South Australia.

A recent grant awarded to SA Pathology and the Women’s and Children’s Hospital and The University of Adelaide will fund world-first research and improve the lives of South Australian babies and their families.
