What’s theneed for aDeadly Choices program?
Why is it important?
![Page 8: PowerPoint Presentation - NACCHOKey Health Findings • Around 1 in 8 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people had heart disease. •Around 1 in 12 Aboriginal and Torres Strait](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042202/5ea23858dced620417237193/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander
people have significant gaps in their
health and wellbeing compared to
non-indigenous people.
Health and wellbeing is linked to other factors such as employment, education, housing and social circumstance
![Page 9: PowerPoint Presentation - NACCHOKey Health Findings • Around 1 in 8 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people had heart disease. •Around 1 in 12 Aboriginal and Torres Strait](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042202/5ea23858dced620417237193/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Close the Gap?
• Most Australians enjoy one of the highest life expectancies of any country in the world. This is not true for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
• Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people can expect to live 10-17 years less than other Australians.
• Babies born to Aboriginal mothers die at more than twice the rate of other Australian babies, and
• Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people experience higher rates of preventable illness such as heart disease, kidney disease and diabetes.

This makes a gap between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and Non-Indigenous life expectancy of:

Close the Gap
The death rates for Indigenous Australians are on par withsome of the world’s most impoverished nations. Statisticsindicate that Australia and Nepal have the world’s worst lifeexpectancy gaps between Indigenous and non-Indigenouspeople.
With your help we aim to close this health gap and achieveAboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health equality withina generation.

In 2012–13, two in five (41%) Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged 15 years and over smoked on a daily basis.
That’s twice as many as non-indigenous people!
This can lead to higher rates of
chronic diseases such as lung cancer,
emphysema and asthma.

Health ChecksThe main goal of Deadly Choices is to encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to access their local health service and complete an annual “Health Check”.
➢ Not just to see the doctor when they are sick, but
➢ To visit their health service and access support to prevent or better manage their chronic disease and remain healthy.
