Death Ceremonies practiced by Indigenous people of Australia
Aboriginal culture is one of the oldest cultures present in the world today, which has survived
in the ever changing world. The tribal population of Australia is a mix of diverse groups that
is composed of several cultures, kinship, living conditions and languages. It can be
complicated for a nurse to understand this culture because of the diversity and numerous
values that they hold. Thus, providing palliative care to these people can be a difficult task.
When it comes to death, dying and mourning, the indigenous people of Australia have
different cultural practices and notions from other Australian groups. They have several
religious ideologies that accompany death and dying in their culture (Korff, J., 2015).
