AUSSIE KIDS A&E

In Perth, one of the most remote cites in the world, two state-of-the-art hospitals have the job of caring for the health of every child from every part of a State that’s bigger than Western Europe.

Many arrive through the doors of the Emergency Department for urgent, life-saving treatment. Others are flown thousands of kilometres for operations that will change their lives. Specialist doctors and nursing teams must deal with every emergency imaginable, from a bead up a toddler’s nose to a brain tumour discovered in a young school girl. In the biggest health precinct on earth, each unpredictable day brings new a new set of dramas.
