The hospital has a close working partnership with the University of Tasmania and works with many universities to provide clinical practice experience for students within different areas of Medicine, Nursing & Midwifery, Allied Health and Pharmacy. The Clifford Craig Foundation is the community arm of the hospital. It aims to improve the health of the community through the provision of funding for innovative medical research, education of health professions, funding of medical equipment and patient facilities within the hospital.
