Recording Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander status [video] (2012)

Description

This series of three videos provides information for Indigenous Health Workers and other health professionals about the importance of quality improvement of recording of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander status. It covers:

• why it is important to ask clients if they are Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander
• how to ask the question and respond to difficult questions
• how to complete a quality improvement cycle to increase accuracy of recording.

It was developed by the Victorian Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (VACCHO) in collaboration with Mungabareena Aboriginal Cooperative and Rumbalara Aboriginal Cooperative.
