Hobart, the nation’s second oldest Capital has a quality of life the envy of all other states. The City’s population live work and play in a thriving community offering a range of lifestyle choices with all amenities in close proximity.

The City of Hobart nestles between majestic Mt Wellington and the Derwent Estuary on one of the world’s great deepwater ports around Sullivans Cove, and is the destination for one of the world’s toughest blue water classics, the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race.

The Hobart waterfront is an exciting environment, a working port featuring top class accommodation and restaurants, and world famous Salamanca Place with its Georgian architecture.  It is the southernmost port of call for many overseas cruise liners.

Hundreds of thousands of tourists visit Hobart annually; many take day tours to such sought after areas as Wine Glass Bay at Freycinet on Tasmania’s East Coast, Port Arthur and the world’s best wild brown trout fishery in the Central Highlands.

Rich in maritime history, Hobart is also the Gateway to Antarctica and homeport for Australia’s only icebreaker, Aurora Australis.

When it comes to lifestyle opportunities and quality of life, Hobart has no equal!

There are three major public teaching hospitals in Tasmania: Royal Hobart Hospital (incorporating the Repatriation General Hospital), Launceston General Hospital, and North West Regional Hospital. Services like neurosurgery, neo-natal intensive care, and a severe burns unit are available at Hobart, and general services including general surgery, obstetrics and paediatric services are offered at all three major hospitals.

The state also has a network of smaller district public hospitals and three Multi Purpose Service centres (integrated services that include residential aged care, GP and community health services) at Beaconsfield, Campbell Town and Nubeena. There are also 11 private hospitals, some of which are contracted by the Department of Health and Human Services to provide services to public patients.
