role of epidemiology
measures of epidemiology (mortality, infant mortality, morbidity, life expectancy)
RHS
• measuring health status
• critique the use of epidemiology to describe health status by considering questions such as:
what can epidemiology tell us?
who uses these measures?
do they measure everything about health status?

RHS
• identifying priority health issues
• argue the case for why decisions are made about health priorities by considering questions such as:
how do we identify priority issues for Australia’s health?
what role do the principles of social justice play?
why is it important to prioritise?

RHS
• health care in Australia
• evaluate health care in Australia by investigating issues of access and adequacy in relation to social justice principles. Questions to explore include:
how equitable is the access and support for all sections of the community?
how much responsibility should the community assume for individual health problems?
• describe the advantages and disadvantages of Medicare and private health insurance, eg costs, choice, ancillary benefits

reasons for growth of complementary and alternative health products and services
range of products and services available
how to make informed consumer choices
RHS
• complementary and alternative health care approaches
• critically analyse complementary and alternative health care approaches by exploring questions such as:
how do you know who to believe?
what do you need to help you make informed decisions?
LHS
• health promotion based on the five action areas of the Ottawa Charter
levels of responsibility for health promotion
the benefits of partnerships in health promotion, eg government sector, non-government agencies and the local community
how health promotion based on the Ottawa Charter promotes social justice
the Ottawa Charter in action
RHS
• health promotion based on the five action areas of the Ottawa Charter
• argue the benefits of health promotion based on:
individuals, communities and governments working in partnership
the five action areas of the Ottawa Charter
- investigate the principles of social justice and the responsibilities of individuals, communities and governments under the action areas of the Ottawa Charter
- critically analyse the importance of the five action areas of the Ottawa Charter through a study of TWO health promotion initiatives related to Australia’s health priorities
