The new $2.3 billion Royal Adelaide Hospital will open this year with a prayer room for Muslims but without a “chapel” after bureaucrats opted for a “spiritual care” area to cater for “multiple faiths”.
The move has angered Australian Conservatives senator Cory Bernardi, who says Australians are “sick and tired” of accommodating a minority religion while undermining Christian traditions and heritage.
The hospital’s new “spiritual care” room is a departure from other major hospitals in the state, including the Queen Elizabeth and Flinders Medical Centre, which have chapels.

“If you’re going to give priority to a particular faith, it should be to the Christian faith because that’s the overwhelmingly dominant ethos and part of our cultural ethos.”

They only have 2.2 % muslim. Time to put on the brakes.
My company set aside one of our rooms for a prayer room for ONE Muslim. I asked my boss if we could set up a Christian chapel. He really didn’t want to talk about it.
Did the hospital have separate entrances for men and women, demand that women only be treated by female staff and an all male staff for men, make all female staff wear the hijab and have a halal dietary department?
SAme old,same old...if these people can’t assimilate,they need to be sent packing.
