ACRRM RG Foundation Skills: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health

Enrol

This course is one of five courses in the ACRRM Rural Generalist Foundation Skills series:

  1. Rural and remote context

  3. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health

  5. Digital health

The aim of this course is to introduce the social, cultural, historical, economic and political framework that has influenced the current health status of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and to facilitate culturally safe practice in primary care.

The materials in this course were developed in partnership with Queensland Country Practice (QCP), Darling Downs Hospital and Health Service.

QCP has agreed to its wider release to contribute to the broad training curriculum delivered through ACRRM and the potential benefit to rural doctors in training in other areas.
