Aboriginal Hospital Liaison Officer Narrabri

Aboriginal Liaison Officers engage with patients, clients and visitors to hospitals and health clinics and assist in arranging, co-ordinating and providing culturally appropriate health care.

They provide key roles in patient advocacy, education and support for patients and family and may act as an intermediary between patients and other healthcare staff.

Aboriginal Hospital Liaison Officers are a key component in understanding the cultural differences so that adequate healthcare and optimal outcomes can be provided.
