The National Guide Podcast

The National Guide Podcast is a collaboration between the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) and National Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (NACCHO). In each episode, host Lauren Trask, NACCHO Implementation Officer and CQI expert, speaks to general practitioners and researchers on updates and changes in the third edition of the National Guide to a preventive health assessment for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

Listeners will hear about the latest evidence on a range of topics from the authors of the third edition of the National Guide - grassroots general practitioners and researchers with experience working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as well as Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services.

The National Guide to a preventive health assessment for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is one of the most widely used clinical guidelines in Australia. The National Guide supports primary healthcare providers to understand what works in preventive healthcare for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, how to prevent disease, detect early and unrecognised disease, and promote health in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, while allowing for local and regional variations.
