This resource developed by the National Heart Foundation (WA Division) and Derbarl Yerrigan Health Services is specifically aimed for Aboriginal Health Workers. The Heart Health Manual is an holistic and visually attractive resource that offers clear instructions for the delivery of cardiovascular health programs. The manual supports the 'Certificate in Cardiovascular Health' an accredited course for Aboriginal Health Workers. Modules include session plans, activities, overheads, case studies and background information appropriate for a variety of settings and target groups. The role of the Aboriginal health worker is explained and advice offered for skill development. The manual is also a useful tool for all health professionals in the quest to improve health and well being of Aboriginal people.
