Indigenous health workforce resources

The Office of the National Rural Health Commissioner affirms its ongoing commitment to reconciliation. We look forward to a future in which Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples live healthy lives celebrating their culture and identity.

This report, by the Australian Indigenous Doctors’ Association, outlines 9 minimum standards and 6 best-practice standards to increase the number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander medical specialists.

The framework is a set of resources for implementing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health curricula. It helps higher education providers develop curricula for their health programs. It also allows regulation authorities to assess the curricula.
