Using best practice models developed by Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services and exemplifying the World Health Organisation's declaration on primary health care, this book aims to assist those working in the field of Aboriginal health to understand the evidence base behind primary care interventions. The book describes clearly and systematically how Aboriginal health is affected by the burden of suffering, poverty, overcrowding, and poor nutrition. The evidence for various preventive measures is assessed, including screening, chemoprophylaxis, vaccination, and strategies of population behaviour change. This book is written for students in medicine, public health, and Aboriginal health, health professionals and practitioners, and Aboriginal health organisations." Weight: 725g.
