Talking about the not talked about: use of, and reactions to, a DVD promoting bowel cancer screening to Aboriginal people.

CONCLUSION: The weaknesses do not appear to lie with the resource itself but can be attributed partly to poor distribution and promotion. This may have been compounded by the structure of the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program, which limited the engagement of Aboriginal community members and health providers whose focus is largely directed towards more pressing health care issues. IMPLICATIONS: Interest in the resource may increase once the Aboriginal component of the screening program is more closely linked with primary care. PMID: 27524679 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
