NSB202 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples’ Well-Being NSB202 – Assessment Task 2A and 2B Page 2 of 9 Assessment Task 2A&B Assessment name: Assessment Task 2A: Report Assessment Task 2B: Group Presentation Task description: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ health and well-being is a complex area of health care policy, planning and practice. Throughout the semester you will be introduced to a number of historical, political, social and cultural issues that construct this complex area of health care. This aims to support you to be an informed and culturally safe practitioner to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients and their family. It also aims to inspire you to advocate for system changes within health care services. Scenario: Your group has been asked to present to the local Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the local mainstream health service. A number of topics have been identified by the Board of Directors and CEO for your presentation. Your group has been given the opportunity to present brief reports to the Board of Directors and CEO on these topics, and provide a concise presentation. Due to the multiple priorities of the Board of Director and the CEO, your group has only been permitted a short time for your presentation. As a result, you will need to ensure that it is concise and persuasive. The is a unique opportunity that may influence how the Board of Directors and the CEO plan to cater for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, now and into the future. Assessment Task 2A is the individual component, which includes: a short report on the topic that you have been allocated through your group deliberations. individual participation in three (3) online discussions. Assessment Task 2B is the group component, which requires your group to: video recording of your group presentation that addresses the topics your group covered individually in Assessment Task 2A. develop of a Project Plan, and then provide three (3) updates to your tutor via email. Learning outcomes assessed: 1. Apply the principles of cultural safety to the context of Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islanders’ health and well-being to analyse and advance your current position on the continuum of cultural safety. 2. Describe historical, social, and political issues and how they inform current experiences of health and well-being, in order to realise their significance as determinants of current health and wellbeing of Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islanders. 3. Discover the everyday experiences of Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islanders that inform their health care and apply this NSB202 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples’ Well-Being NSB202 – Assessment Task 2A and 2B Page 3 of 9 knowledge to facilitate effective partnerships with individuals, families, and communities. 4. Articulate the principles of comprehensive primary health care as a vehicle for understanding Aboriginal peoples’ and Torres Strait Islanders’ health and well-being in terms of self-determination and activism. 5. Critically analyse existing Aboriginal peoples’ and Torres Strait Islanders’ health and well-being programs and associated professional roles to develop a culturally safe and holistic response to a complex case study. What you need to do: Assessment Task 2A Report In your group of 4-6 students, decide the allocation of topics. If you are a group of… six (6), your group must allocate all topics. five (5), your group must allocate 5 topics only. four (4), your group must allocate 4 topics only. The topics include: 1. Holistic care – Reflecting on the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander definition of health (as included in the NACCHO Constitution), discuss the barriers that prevent our current mainstream health system from meeting the holistic health needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. 2. Aboriginal Community Controlled health services (ACCHS) – Discuss the strengths of ACCHS, specifically in their response to holistic health needs, as per the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander definition of health (as included in the NACCHO Constitution). 3. Interdisciplinary collaboration – Discuss the role of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health worker. What strengths do they bring to the interdisciplinary team? What are their limitations? How do nurses and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health workers optimise each other’s role in this context? 4. Intersectionality – The poorer health outcomes experienced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer (LGBTIQ), brother-boys or sister-girls is evidence of how people with intersectional identities may experience multiple layers of disadvantage. Discuss the main health concerns for this population group, and describe existing health and well-being services available to respond to these needs. 5. Discharge Against Medical Advice (DAMA) – Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ rates of DAMA is significantly higher than that of other Australians. Briefly discuss common health system factors that contribute to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ rates of DAMA. Then discuss one (1) health system improvement strategy that could reduce the incidence of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ rates NSB202 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples’ Well-Being NSB202 – Assessment Task 2A and 2B Page 4 of 9 of DAMA. 6. Political imperative of well-being – Patient advocacy by nurses contributes to improved health outcomes. However, for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients, patient advocacy has often been shown to be inadequate. How can the nursing profession and individual nurses become better advocates for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples?
