Scenario 4: Burril is a 72 year old Aboriginal Australian living in Wamba Wamba Nation near the Murray River some 65 kilometers from Swan Hill. Burril has an existing diagnosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis and was recently diagnosed with advanced Alzheimer’s Disease following a hospitalisation for severe pneumonia. Conversations with his family suggest that Burril had been showing signs of his dementia for close to a decade. Burril is quite frail and dependent on the care of his family. Burril exhibits loss of memory and inappropriate behaviours. An indigenous health worker suggested that the family had not sought any medical help for Burril because they did not want Burril to be taken from his country and had considered the symptoms a sign that Burril had a sick spirit. Burril is an elder in his community and as such is an important story teller. The loss of Burril’s memory is felt by the broader community. Burril is now con sidered to be entering a palliative stage of care. Burril’s family remain adamant that Burril would not want to leave his country although conversations with Burril himself have been limited. Burril’s community, however, is remote and lacks local healthcare resources. Since their discussions with the indigenous health worker when Burril was hospitalised, the family are open to exploring all avenues of medical help to optimise Burril’s comfort and quality of life and so the community can keep their elder for as long as possible. The family, however, feels strongly about Burril remaining at home.
