Uncovering missed opportunities to provide holistic care for a cross‐sectional cohort of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Peoples in a metropolitan hospital
Findings quantify previously unpublished levels of chronic disease markers and reasons for hospital admission of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Peoples. Findings highlight missed care opportunities, within hospital for all chronic diseases and on transitions of care to the community. More is needed to make hospital system changes that encourage clinicians to provide holistic care. Further research using continuous quality improvement methods could help rethink these systems.
