In order to explore facilitating the autonomy of diverse older adults in health contexts, we are invited to choose a diverse ageing population (E.g. First Nations People, LGBTIQA+, Refugees……) and make a presentation investigating healthy ageing in this specific population.

This presentation should include structures and supports* available to this population which may be local, state or national initiatives. These structures and supports are to be based in the Australian context.

The presentation must address all the following points:

•            What are the unique challenges faced by this specific diverse population, and how might these be relevant to people’s health as they age (cultural, spiritual, psychological, social and physiological health)?

•            What is the importance of the ageing person’s role in determining their own life and health context?

•            What services and initiatives (not for profit, NGO, government, private, other) are in place to address the challenges that might be experienced by this specific diverse ageing population?

•            How can nurses advocate for older consumers to ensure they have choice in relation to these services/initiatives?

Jane brings her four-year-old named Tim to a comprehensive pediatrics clinic in order to assess his health status. Jane reports that Tim is very curious and smart and gets along socially with other children. Jane says that Tim’s preschool teacher suggested she take him to the doctor for a health screening because she has noticed his stools looking oily when he uses the bathroom.

Patient History:
Tim’s mother Jane is a former drug user and has no family in the area. For these reasons, along with the socioeconomic status of his household (below the poverty line), Tim had a difficult first few years of life. However, recently his mom got help from social services and has been drug-free for six months. They are living in a new rental home and Tim is adjusting well to his new living situation but is still struggling at school. He recently had several accidents and so they temporarily put him in pull-up diapers. He has also shown to be hesitant in engaging in physical activity and seems more tired and exhausted than a typical four-year-old should be.
