HH330 – Unit 3 – Outcome 1 - Area of Study 1 – Term 1 2012
Unit 3 – Australia’s Health
Outcome:
Compare the health status of Australia’s population with other developed countries, explain variations
in health status of population groups in Australia and discuss the role of the National Health Priority
Areas in improving Australia’s health status.
Key Knowledge’s:
 definitions of physical, social and mental dimensions of health and health status;
 different measures of health status of Australians, including the meaning of burden of disease,
 health adjusted life expectancy and DALYs, life expectancy, under-five mortality rate, mortality, morbidity, incidence,
prevalence;
 health status of Australians compared with other developed countries, including Sweden, United States of America,
United Kingdom and Japan;
 variations in the health status of population groups in Australia, including males and females,
higher and lower socio-economic status groups, rural and remote populations and indigenous populations;
 biological, behavioural and social determinants of health in explaining variations in health status;
 the NHPAs including:
– key features, determinants that act as risk factors and reasons for selection of each NHPA
– direct, indirect and intangible costs to individuals and communities of NHPAs
– one health promotion program relevant to each NHPA;
 glycaemic index and function and food sources of major nutrients as a determinant of health, including protein,
carbohydrate (including fibre), fats (mono, poly, saturated and trans), water, calcium, phosphorus, iron, fluoride,
iodine, sodium, vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin C, folate and B12
 the role of nutrition in addressing the following conditions recognised in the NHPAs: cardiovascular
health, diabetes mellitus, colorectal cancer, obesity and osteoporosis.
Key Skills:
 define key health terms;
 analyse data about the health status of Australia’s population and that of other developed countries;
 interpret and analyse data to compare the health status of selected population groups in Australia;
 use the determinants of health to explain differences in the health status of Australians and between population
groups;
 explain and then justify one health promotion program that addresses each NHPA;
 explain the functions and identify food sources of the major nutrients required for health;

explain the role of nutrition in addressing specific conditions within the NHPAs
