Crest : On a Wreath Or and Sable An Unicorn's Head Argent armed and crined between two Torches Or enflamed proper.

Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on June 30, 1964.
The shield is blue, the upper portion of which is ermine-covered signifying the Royal association of the Hospital. Upon the ermine are two Tudor Roses-the main emblem of the Hospital. The lower part of the shield shows blue and is occupied by a golden rising sun being part of the Armorial Bearings of the State of South Australia.
The Crest is surmounted by a white unicorn a very ancient symbol of Medicine-which is supported by two gold torches of knowledge.
