Paper Summary:
This paper discusses the phenomenon that Aborigines have much lower health care standards than other Australians and examines the multiple social causes for this situation. These includes squalid living conditions, lack of education and awareness, fear of the authorities and general belief in their own systems of health care.From the Paper:
"Aborigines make up less than one percent of the total population in Australia. On every index, Aborigines fare worse than other Australians. Most Aboriginal families face health problems due to a lack of health care. They are at disadvantage in health standards, life expectancy, and infant mortality. Health risks and lack of proper health care place Aboriginal children at extreme risk for many diseases."More papers on Aboriginal Health Care:
