For many Aboriginal community members, primary health (eg. family doctors) and public health (eg. disease prevention) services are the first contact with the health care system. This event will explore examples of how public health and primary care can be potentially combined in creative ways to better meet the needs of Aboriginal community members.
This event is open to the general public. Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal community members are welcome and encouraged to attend. This event is very relevant for health care practitioners, community service providers and Aboriginal organizations.
Refreshments will be provided. Please feel free to distribute the attached poster to colleagues, students and friends.
Hope to see you on the 22nd!
