Does telehealth disrupt the trainee–supervisor learning environment in vocational general practice training? A qualitative study
The health and wellbeing of incarcerated trans, gender diverse, and non-binary people
Setting Primary Health and Social Care Priorities Using a Deliberative Democratic Participatory Approach
INTRODUCTION: Publicly funded regional primary health care investments are usually informed by analysis of locally collected data, surveys, focus groups and consultations. We wanted a deeper understanding of baseline health and social care priorities in culturally diverse Western Sydney. If WentWest could understand the priorities, the operational agenda for commissioning services could be tailored around them. This research describes the organis…
The socioemotional challenges and consequences for caregivers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children with otitis media
INTRODUCTION: Living with ear disease can have extensive impacts on physical, emotional and social well-being. This study explored otitis media (OM) and its management from the perspective of caregivers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. METHODS: Semi-structured interviews were conducted from 2015 to 2020 with caregivers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children with OM. Thematic analysis of transcripts was undertaken usin…
Using Community Based Research Frameworks to Develop and Implement a Church-Based Program to Prevent Diabetes and Its Complications for Samoan Communities in South Western Sydney
Pasifika communities bear a disproportionate burden of diabetes compared to the general Australian population. Community-based participatory research (CBPR), which involves working in partnership with researchers and communities to address local health needs, has gained prominence as a model of working with underserved communities. This paper describes how Le Taeao Afua (LTA) Samoan diabetes prevention program was underpinned by two CBPR framewor…
Drivers to Obesity—A Study of the Association between Time Spent Commuting Daily and Obesity in the Nepean Blue Mountains Area
Obesity has become a public health challenge in every country on this planet, with a substantial contribution to global mortality and morbidity. Studies of the built environment have shown some promise in understanding the drivers of this obesity pandemic. This paper contributes to this knowledge, by focusing on one aspect of the urban environment and asking whether there is an association between commuting and obesity in residents of the Nepean …
A Scoping Review of Qualitative Research Methods Used With People in Prison
Researchers undertaking qualitative interview and focus group research with people in prison must consider the research methods they use, given the ethical and practical complexities of prison-based research. In particular, there are explicit and implicit coercion risks and barriers to access, privacy, and confidentiality. To examine how the challenges of conducting rigorous qualitative research with prisoners were handled, we undertook a scoping…
Interacting With Providers
Intersectionality has potential to create new ways to describe disparities and craft meaningful solutions. This study aimed to explore Aboriginal carers' experiences of interactions with health, social, and education providers in accessing services and support for their child. Carers of Aboriginal children with a disability were recruited from an Australian metropolitan Aboriginal community-controlled health service. In-depth, semistructured inte…
Aboriginal and non-aboriginal Australian former prisoners’ patterns of morbidity and risk of hospitalisation
Despite poorer health among Aboriginal people, there were broadly similar patterns of reasons for admission to hospital among Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal former prisoners. There may be a number of explanations for this. The cohort was not a representative sample of the NSW prison population. There was an overrepresentation of individuals with cognitive disability (intellectual disability, acquired brain injury, dementia, fetal alcohol spectrum …
Medical homelessness and candidacy
For women in transition between prison and community, healthcare access could be experienced as 'medical homelessness' in which women felt caught in a perpetual state of waiting and exclusion during cycles of prison- and community-based care. Their healthcare experiences were characterized by ineffectual attempts to access care, transient relationships with healthcare providers, disrupted medical management and a fear that stigma would prevent ca…

Cultural competency training of GP Registrars-exploring the views of GP Supervisors
Formal training for both Registrars and Supervisors may be beneficial not only to develop a deeper understanding of cultural competence and its relevance to practice but also to promote more consistency in training from Supervisors in the area, particularly with respect to self-reflection, non-conscious bias and utilizing appropriate cultural knowledge without stereotyping and assumption-making
Evaluating a Health Care Partnership in Australia
Introduction: Local Health Districts in Australia are responsible for providing publicly-funded community and hospital health services. Medicare Locals support primary health care doctors (general practitioners) and provide other primary health care services. Historically this care has not been systematically integrated. In 2012, Western Sydney Local Health District (WSLHD) and Western Sydney Medicare Local (WSML) signed a Partnership Memorandum …
Improving immunisation timeliness in Aboriginal children through personalised calendars
Personalised calendars can increase the timeliness of immunisations in Aboriginal children. This simple, low cost tool appears practicable and effective in an Aboriginal community setting in improving early childhood vaccination timeliness and has high potential for local adaptation to suit the needs of diverse communities
