The National Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (NACCHO) will be hosting 2 one-hour webinars for staff from ACCHOs and AMSs on the cervical screening self-collection option for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander women and people with a cervix. 

Offering these patients the option to collect their own test provides greater choice and empowerment in screening and discussing screening in a culturally sensitive manner can overcome barriers to participation.

Come along to learn more about how we can increase cervical screening awareness and participation amongst Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander women and people with a cervix.

Hear from:

• ACCHO sector staff on how self-collect is being implemented in their Community

• Professor Marion Saville, Executive Director at the Australian Centre for the Prevention of Cervical Cancer

Other healthcare workers who work with Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander patients can also attend. 

RACGP and ACRRM CPD points will be available for this training. A link to the webinar recording will be sent following the training date to those who register.

This training will be delivered by NACCHO in partnership with the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care and the Australian Centre for the Prevention of Cervical Cancer.
