"Critically, supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health requires a comprehensive approach that considers health as more than just the absence of disease or illness; it is a holistic concept that includes physical, social, emotional, cultural, spiritual and ecological wellbeing, for both the individual and the community." This article in the Lowitja Journal highlights how high vaccination rates among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities was made possible during the COVID-19 pandemic https://hubs.li/Q02QyJGc0

Did you know? Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities face significant health disparities compared to the broader Australian population. This isn't just about individual choices. Social factors like access to healthy food, safe housing, education, and culturally safe healthcare play a huge role in these disparities. You can - be part of the solution: Collaborate locally: Search for 'Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Service + your suburb'. Express your desire to learn about their needs and how you could potentially collaborate. In your practice: Consider offering pro-bono work or discounts for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to make your services more accessible. Learn and build: Connect with Indigenous health services for resources and education to bolster your cultural competency. For Southeast Queensland-based chiros, physios and dietitians, Institute for Urban Indigenous Health (IUIH) and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Program Unit within Queensland Health is a good place to start.

September 30th marks National Truth and Reconciliation Day, a solemn reminder of the tragic legacy of the residential school system and its enduring impact on Indigenous communities across Canada. Indigenous inequity is not just a dark chapter in our history… it is a current reality in Canada. Indigenous children and families still face significant health disparities all across the nation. Access to culturally safe and informed healthcare remains vital in addressing these ongoing inequities and improving the well-being of Indigenous peoples today. We have a long way to go in achieving true reconciliation. It requires an unwavering commitment to dismantling systemic barriers and supporting Indigenous-focused health initiatives. By working together, we build a future that prioritizes health equity and respects the rights and dignity of Indigenous peoples. #TruthAndReconciliation #EveryChildMatters #IndigenousHealth

VAHS is one of the ACCHOs delivering services within the 'Strengthening Lifelong Aboriginal Health and Wellbeing (Urgent Care Pathways)' program. Urgent Care Pathways aim to improve the health of Aboriginal people in Victoria by redirecting treatment for potentially preventable hospitalisations from mainstream hospitals to Community Control. Shifting demand from acute mainstream health services and hospitals to ACCHOs who deliver culturally responsive, prevention-focussed health care, is critical to reduce the number of Aboriginal people that present to hospitals for Potentially Preventable conditions. Below is a short video on benefits of having Aboriginal health and wellbeing in Aboriginal hands.? #SelfDetermination #AboriginalHealth #CommunityControl https://lnkd.in/gENuFXAs

September 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. In recognition, BC Renal would like to raise awareness of some valuable resources on Indigenous health and wellness, as well as tools for non-Indigenous network members to learn and practice anti-racism. Understanding the history of the land we live on — and recognizing the Indigenous nations and communities who have called this land home since time immemorial — is crucial to reconciliation. Our Land Acknowledgement Learning Series with the Can-SOLVE CKD Network - Le réseau Can-SOLVE CKD is a helpful guide to territorial land acknowledgements: understanding their significance to Indigenous reconciliation, engaging with land acknowledgements authentically and respectfully, and recognizing one's own relationship to the land. You can watch the webinar series and read the guidebook here: https://ow.ly/8iEs50TcUnz #Reconciliation #IndigenousHealth #IndigenousWellness #AntiRacism #CulturalSafety

Improving the health and quality of life of Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples through services, technologies and therapeutics is among the most important elements of this country’s ongoing effort to close the equity gap. Promisingly, signs are emerging that we are making headway. Health checks among First Nations people jumped from 17.6% to 27.9% of the population between 2013 and 2023, hospital and antenatal services also increased, while self-discharge rates are gradually falling. It’s also good to see ongoing investment – from public and private - into indigenous health projects. But we must remain staunchly focused if we want to meaningfully address the glaring disparities in First Nations people’s access to care, compared with non-Indigenous Australians. Remote access, transport, cultural sensitivity in care and affordability all remain significant barriers. This year’s NAIDOC Week theme - Keep the fire burning! Blak, loud & proud – honours the enduring strength and vitality of Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. In healthcare, this means acknowledging the progress made and being frank and fearless about the areas that need improvement, change and resourcing. #NAIDOCWeek #GEHealthCare #IndigenousHealth #FirstNationsHealth
