The Barossa Hills Fleurieu Local Health Network Inc. has a strong commitment to the provision of accessible, effective and meaningful services to the Aboriginal communities, families and individuals from rural and remote areas. It also acknowledges the cultural determinants and particular complexities affecting the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal people and the need for a holistic and multi-faceted health approach to service design and delivery.
SA Health is leading significant reform designed to improve the health of all South Australians and meet future challenges, in accordance with the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Plan and Close the Gap initiatives.
The Aboriginal Health Practitioner (Trainee)/ Aboriginal Health Practitioner (Practitioner) will work within the hospital setting to support and embed a stronger and more sustainable approach to support of Aboriginal patients in hospital, or attending outpatients and emergency departments, through providing an ‘Aboriginal lens’ to health care and delivering cultural safe care. In collaboration with the multidisciplinary teams the Trainee/Practitioner will assess and provide clinical intervention to Aboriginal patients, including those with complex needs. The service they provide will aim to reduce the risk of Aboriginal patients disengaging with treatment and care plans. They will provide acute and sub-acute health responses, support hospital avoidance and advise on length of stay in the acute sector and closer to home services.
