Funded Activity Summary

This research will provide better data about Aboriginal heart disease and patterns of care than has been previously available using the unique capability that exists in data available in western Australia. But we already have data that shows gaps in the care available to Aboriginal people compared to non-Aboriginal Australians so this research also proposes to examine the barriers to implementing changes based existing and new knowledge, not just at the service interface but at the health service management, planning and political level.
