Primary health care services better meeting the health needs of Aboriginal Australians transitioning from prison to the community: SPRINT final report

Year: 2013

Type: article

Abstract: The aim of the SPRINT project was to develop culturally specific understandings of how primary health care services can better meet the health care and social support coordination needs of Aboriginal Australians transitioning from the criminal justice system into the community, with a view to reducing reincarceration and improving quality of life. This report describes the factors influencing Aboriginal Australians' access to primary health care on release from custody and suggests ways to increase access to effective primary health care for Aboriginal people in contact with the criminal justice system.
