The Improving Aboriginal Patient Journeys study aims to develop, refine and evaluate a set of Aboriginal patient journey mapping tools for use in quality improvement and education. A collaborative approach to knowledge exchange was used, with the research team working with staff and managers from a range of health settings in South Australia and the Northern Territory. 

The case studies in this report describe the ways in which four groups of caridac staff in Adelaide, Alice Springs and Darwin adapted and used the mapping tools.

This report on Cardiac Case Studies is complemented by four others: Renal, Maternity, Rural and Remote Sites, and City Sites (see related information below).
