Investigating The Application Of Population Data To Improve Maternal And Child Health Services In Two Remote Communities
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$83,281.00
Summary
This project will contribute to the understanding of how routinely collected population health data relate to remote Aboriginal communities and how such data can be used in two field sites. Population data are widely used, but the opportunity to investigate these matters is limited. The nesting of this study within a larger project aimed at improving health services for mothers and babies provides a unique opportunity to investigate aspects of applying macro level data at a local level.
'An Investigation Of Aspects Of Oral Health And Access To Care For People Living In Social Chaos In The Rural Setting
Funder
National Health and Medical Research Council
Funding Amount
$57,036.00
Summary
Improving access to oral health care for disadvantaged populations is often difficult in the rural setting where workforce capacity is challenged by high demand for episodic care, lengthy waiting lists and absence of recall. For some people, lifestyles are not necessarily chosen or easily changed. Analyzing the stories people tell about their lives in the rural setting will offer explanations of how their doctors and dentists can effectively integrate their oral health and general health.
