Following the release of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Curriculum Framework by the Australian Government Department of Health in 2014, CATSINaM undertook a process to adapt the framework specifically for nursing and midwifery.
The resulting Nursing and Midwifery Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Curriculum Framework is an adaption of and a complementary document to the 2014 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Curriculum Framework.
Universities delivering pre-registration courses for nursing and midwifery are encouraged to use the Nursing and Midwifery Framework to review how their courses meet and/or exceed accreditation and registration guidelines for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health and cultural safety.
