“Identify the relationship between the social and economic conditions of everyday life and health outcomes”
Course Content
In this learning activity, we will explore the social determinants which influence the health outcomes for people in Australia. We will investigate how the socioeconomic characteristics and environmental factors, knowledge, attitudes and beliefs, all influence population health in Australia.
And as with any risk factors, the combination of these risks increases the population’s experience of poor health outcomes, leaving the community to find the resources to manage this increasing burden of disease.
