Indigenous And Global Health Assignment Help

TASK What are the main barriers identified in the paper to accessing and using health care for the Indigenous infants in the study area? Can you think of any additional barriers that may be applicable. What do you think are the main underlying reasons for the very high rates of infant malnutrition observed in this study? The background section of the paper states that Aboriginal people living in remote communities usually have worse health outcomes than those in urban or larger rural areas. What are some of these health outcomes among remote Aboriginal people, and why are they worse than those in urban or larger rural areas? In Table 5, the authors list a number of strategies to improve the quality of remote infant health care. To what extent do you think Indigenous infant health will be improved if all these strategies were to be successfully implemented? What additional strategies can you suggest to improve remote infant health? Among the barriers to service delivery, the authors mention families’ need to attend funerals and traditional Aboriginal ceremonies. Can you suggest ways for health service to reconcile this need with the need to attend health care services and follow-up appointments? Administrative duties were reported to take up a significant proportion of AHW’s workload. It can be argued that these duties are likely to increase further if recommendations in Table 5, especially those for clinical governance and leadership, are implemented. Do you agree, and what can be done to improve AHW’s workloads?
