Afternoon session now kicking off for @CATSINaM #BackToTheFire WA event - we will be hearing first from Assoc Prof Beverley Ewens (Associate Dean Undergraduate in the School of Nursing and Midwifery at @EdithCowanUni), and then Dr Amanda Graf and Aggie Caracciolo 
Hearing (recorded) presentation from Assoc Prof Beverley Ewens #BackToTheFire
Diverse membership of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Inclusivity Committee: Ewens #BackToTheFire
Only committee of its kind in the uni, quite well established (7 years), meet every 6 weeks, report to school's executive and curricula bodies. #BackToTheFire
Ewens: enabling factors underpinned by strengths base for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to succeed at @EdithCowanUni #BackToTheFire
Some of the committee's guiding frameworks are the uni's RAP (with its own School operational plan), the Getting Em and Keeping Em report (32 recs - all still relevant today). Been part of audit of review, looking forward to its findings #BackToTheFire
. @WestRoianne notes that Indigenous nursing and midwifery students are still 30% less likely to complete Nursing and Midwifery programs. #BackToTheFire
Cultural safety training @EdithCowanUni School of Nursing and Midwifery - School is part of research being led by @WestRoianne on cultural capability measurement tool #BackToTheFire
. @WestRoianne congrats the @EdithCowanUni School for their longstanding work/commitment, and focus on the evidence base. #BackToTheFire
Also in reply, @strictlykaren welcomes the work being done at the @EdithCowanUni School, to support more Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, academics and leaders at all levels #BackToTheFire
"We're not just looking for mentors, we're looking for academic inputs...." says Aggie Caracciolo #BackToTheFire
Next up we're watching a recent presentation at 18th National Nurse Education Conference 2021 by @WestRoianne (she added her own inspiration to the conference's - Cultural Safety a lifelong journey) #BackToTheFire
Why cultural safety rather than cultural competency is required to achieve health equity: a literature review and recommended definition

Was heartening that #BlackLivesMatter was acknowledged among key issues for this year's @acn_tweet Nursing Now Australia Finale: @WestRoianne #BackToTheFire
Establishment of @CATSINaM was a move of self-determination, as was creation of ACCHOs.
Irihapeti Ramsden identified that more Indigenous nurses were needed to improve Indigenous health outcomes.

"Remember to leave a paper trail." Words from Irihapeti Ramsden that still resonate for @WestRoianne #BackToTheFire
Here's @WestRoianne PhD: Indigenous Australian participation in pre-registration tertiary nursing courses: an Indigenous mixed methods study researchonline.jcu.edu.au/25859/ #BackToTheFire
Is an upward trajectory from 2012 in commencing nursing students, but also for non-Indigenous students...so the risk is that the disparity will remain the same, continue to result in high attrition rates, Indigenous students only account for 1pc nursing workforce #BackToTheFire
750 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students commence nursing/midwifery each year, 250-300 graduate: completion rate is only rising 1pc per year: @WestRoianne #BackToTheFire
ICYMI yesterday, here's background to Muliyan, a national collaboration to decolonise health care - to be strong, political, and call out the system for how it continues to cause harm, through racism: catsinam.org.au/muliyan-who-we… #BackToTheFire
"They don't know what they don't know." The need for truth telling in nursing and midwifery.
"Research is an act of resistance."
