ARA Vaccination Clinic questionnaire - Buthanese patient

Details

ProvenanceThis ARA Vaccination Clinic questionnaire was completed by Rebika, a member of the Buthanese community, attending an ARA vaccination clinic. She chose to attend this ARA vaccination clinic because there were several different translators which was useful because most people that attend the clinic do not speak English. Having these clinics encourages everyone in the Australian international community to get vaccinated for their safety.
The form was donated by ARA who is a community based organisation that supports refugees before and after their arrival in Australia. During the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, they developed assistance programs in various languages to help non-English speakers understand the crisis. Their vaccination pop-up clinics have consequently aided families in the CALD community, helping them feel at ease with the vaccination process and providing them with necessary support throughout this time.SignificanceThe History in the Making Project is collecting objects relating to both individual South Australians’ experience of the pandemic and the operation of businesses, charities, and government.
This ARA Vaccination Clinic questionnaire form provides information on why members of the multicultural community attended the ARA clinic to get vaccinated. The ARA pop up clinic is an excellent example of how organisations in South Australia were able to support the community during the pandemic.DescriptionThis is an Australian Refugee Association (ARA) Vaccination Clinic form to gather documentation about why people from different international communities chose to go to an ARA clinic instead of their local GP or pharmacy. In the top left of the form it has the ARA logo and the top right has the web address australianrefugee.org in blue. Below this is "Empowering Courageous People" in grey. A quarter of the way down, written in print is “First name: (optional)” and handwritten next to this is “Rebika”. At the bottom of the page is a consent provided box which states the person who has filled out the form gives consent for the History Trust of South Australia to make their responses publicly available, online or in an exhibition.Date of Creation2022Date of Usage05/03/2022DimensionType: flat
