1HEALTH SERVICES AND FACILITIES PLANNING
Executive Summary:
CVD is considered as one of the most significant contributors of morbidity and
mortality both globally and in Australia. In Australia, CVD is the highest causes of death due
to disease and the risks are found to be higher among the Indigenous population compared to
the non indigenous population. A health service plan has been developed which can help to
improve the health and wellbeing of the Indigenous people in South Western Sydney by
reducing the risks of CVD among the people. Various determinants of health has been
addressed, however the main determinant that was focused on was awareness of both the risk
factors as well as recovery strategies which can help to reduce the burden of disease. The
SHP mainly acknowledges that by improving the awareness of the people and increasing
access to health service can further help to reduce the burden of the disease.
