Booklets for First Nations Australians

We produce several information booklets about blood cancer for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients and their families.

The booklets are primarily visual teaching tools, designed to meet the comprehension needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients. However, they may also benefit all patients, including cultural and linguistically diverse people groups whose main language is not English.

You can read the digital versions of these booklets by clicking the links below, or your health clinic may have printed versions for you to take home.

Changes in your blood

Information about your blood, blood cancer tests, and who can help you.
