The goal of this assessment is for you to use information about a specific health issue relevant to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander populations to produce a case study analysis which informs decision making and best practice. The assessment is presented in two parts
• Digital poster
• 1000 words required within the poster itself.
This assessment will contribute to 30% (30 marks) of your overall grade mark.
Steps to Complete your Task 2:
Step 1 – Choosing the Focus of your Digital Poster.
Being particularly aware of cultural considerations choose one item from list A and B. Together these will provide the focus of your research, case study development and digital poster presentation.
List A:
(1) Aboriginal Male – 45 years+
(2) Aboriginal Male – 18 years +
(3) Torres Strait Islander Male – 45 years+
(4) Torres Strait Islander Male – 18 years+

The case study should include the Indigenous clients background and medical history (name, age, religion, next of kin, family situation, where they live, employment, medications, medical and surgical history, prior condition before needing nursing intervention, cultural needs, etc).
Step 3 – Researching the Client’s Condition/ Situation.
Research literature to obtain information about the health situation/ condition chosen from list B in your case study. This should include pathophysiology/prevalence in Indigenous communities, nursing interventions, possible drug therapy. Use literature to support key points included in your poster
Note: Cultural considerations and safety specific to your case study should be highlighted

• Heading 4 - Nursing Interventions – drug therapy (Best practice).
• Heading 5 - Cultural Safety - nursing practice (Best practice).
• Heading 6 - Reference List - 6 references only.
