Improving health standards must be related to efforts to improve the overall standard of living. Dana Sehat is in fact a framework within which the community, community leaders and health personnel can work together to develop a programme which suits the needs and capabilities of the community. The community can use the Dana Sehat to develop a prepaid health care scheme, which also aims to raise income, improve living conditions and increase the community’s understanding about health and its relation to environment and nutrition. What distinguishes Dana Sehat from other health schemes is that within this framework, the community, community leaders and health personnel are encouraged to contribute each according to his interests and capabilities. Communities can tap their own resources to overcome their own problems without depending too much on outside aid. These principles are cornerstones for approaches to primary health care and rural development, as presently envisaged by W.H.O. and other international organizations.

Abstract. Background: Indigenous Australians experience a suicide rate over twice that of the general population. With nonfatal deliberate self-harm (DSH) being the single most important risk factor for suicide, characterizing the incidence and repetition of DSH in this population is essential. Aims: To investigate the incidence and repetition of DSH in three remote Indigenous communities in Far North Queensland, Australia. Method: DSH presentation data at a primary health-care center in each community were analyzed over a 6-year period from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2011. Results: A DSH presentation rate of 1,638 per 100,000 population was found within the communities. Rates were higher in age groups 15–24 and 25–34, varied between communities, and were not significantly different between genders; 60% of DSH repetitions occurred within 6 months of an earlier episode. Of the 227 DSH presentations, 32% involved hanging. Limitations: This study was based on a subset of a larger dataset not specifically designed for DSH data collection and assesses the subset of the communities that presented to the primary health-care centers. Conclusion: A dedicated DSH monitoring study is required to provide a better understanding of DSH in these communities and to inform early intervention strategies.
