Mon rêve, travailler, rencontrer du monde, voyager
Le soutien des projets de médiation, qu’ils soient artistiques, sportifs, artisanaux et/ou professionnels, est incontournable dans le travail d’accompagnement des personnes en situation de précarité, que cet accompagnement soit effectué par des professionnels (du travail social), ou par des citoyen·nes (sous-entendu « bénévoles »). Car il se joue à cet endroit l’épanouissement de la personne, son intégration à des réseaux de personnes et la reval…
Underclassism' and access to healthcare in urban centres
In this article, we draw on findings from an ethnographic study that explored experiences of healthcare access from the perspectives of Indigenous and non-Indigenous patients seeking services at the non-urgent division of an urban emergency department (ED) in Canada. Our aim is to critically examine the notion of 'underclassism' within the context of healthcare in urban centres. Specifically, we discuss some of the processes by which patients exp…
Closing the health equity gap
These evidence- and theoretically-informed key dimensions and strategies provide direction for PHC organizations aiming to redress the increasing levels of health and health care inequities across population groups. The findings provide a framework for conceptualizing and operationalizing the essential elements of equity-oriented PHC services when working with marginalized populations, and will have broad application to a wide range of settings, …
Preserving the Self
Women who carry BRCA1 or BRCA2 (BRCA1/2) gene mutations have up to an 88% lifetime risk of breast cancer and up to a 65% lifetime risk of ovarian cancer. Strategies to address these risks include cancer screening and risk-reducing surgery (i.e., mastectomy and salpingo-oophorectomy). We conducted a grounded theory study with 22 BRCA1/2 mutation-carrier women to understand how women make decisions about these risk-reducing strategies. Preserving t…
Access to Primary Care From the Perspective of Aboriginal Patients at an Urban Emergency Department
In this article, we discuss findings from an ethnographic study in which we explored experiences of access to primary care services from the perspective of Aboriginal people seeking care at an emergency department (ED) located in a large Canadian city. Data were collected over 20 months of immersion in the ED, and included participant observation and in-depth interviews with 44 patients triaged as stable and nonurgent, most of whom were living in…
Reinterpretations Across Studies
The authors undertook a qualitative meta-analysis of their own studies to examine the context of health care and health care relationships. They "translated" selected concepts and metaphors from each study through those of the other studies, yielding new interpretations. In this article, they present their methods, discuss possible applications of this approach, and examine some issues that remain unresolved in the area of qualitative meta-analys…
Health Care Relationships in Context
A qualitative meta-analysis of three ethnographic studies conducted by the original investigators of those studies yielded new understandings of the dynamics of health care relationships in context. Through this analysis, the authors show that moral judgments and decision making in health care are highly relational and contextual. The use of power to compel health care providers and patients to comply with organizational practices is shown as fun…
