<i>Koolungar</i> (Children) <i>Moorditj</i> (Strong) Healthy Skin Project Part <scp>II</scp> : Skin Health in Urban‐Living Australian Aboriginal Children
We report high caregiver diagnostic accuracy for skin conditions. AD is prevalent, with undertreatment, frequent impetiginization, and sleep disturbance indicating barriers to care. Healthcare providers must advocate for improved housing, as the link between skin infections and socioeconomic disadvantage impacts overall health for urban-living Aboriginal CYP.
