Between Denial and Delay: Barriers to Accessing Nonpharmacological Interventions for Seniors With Mild-to-Moderate Dementia in Canada
Dementia is a growing public health concern in Canada, yet timely access to nonpharmacological interventions (NPIs) for persons with dementia (PWDs) remains poorly understood. This critical ethnographic study explored factors influencing access to NPIs among private-dwelling seniors with mild-to-moderate dementia and their family/friend care partners (CPs) in Alberta, Canada. Guided by McLeroy et al.'s Ecological Perspective and Habermas' Critica…

Sociocultural Influences on Arab Women's Participation in Breast Cancer Screening in Qatar
Breast cancer, the most common cancer among Arab women in Qatar, significantly affects the morbidity and mortality of Arab women largely because of low participation rates in breast cancer screening. We used a critical ethnographic approach to uncover and describe factors that influence Arab women's breast cancer screening practices. We conducted semistructured interviews with 15 health care practitioners in Qatar. Through thematic analysis of th…
Contextual Factors Influencing Breastfeeding Practices Among Arab Women in the State of Qatar
Breastfeeding is an important source of nutrition and sustenance for infants and toddlers, and has also been linked to several aspects of emotional, physiological, and psychological developments.

Some studies also suggest it may enhance cognitive development and reduce…

Qatari Women Living With Cardiovascular Diseases—Challenges and Opportunities to Engage in Healthy Lifestyles
In Qatar, cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Cardiovascular diseases can be prevented and controlled by modifying lifestyle risk behaviors. In this qualitative study, we investigate ways to increase participation in physical activity, and to promote a healthy diet, and nonsmoking behavior in Qatari women. Individual in-depth interviews were conducted with 50 Arabic women. Participation in physical activity,…
Living “In-between”—Vietnamese Canadian Women's Experiences: Implications for Health Care Practice
Intercultural living-a living that dwells "in-between" spaces of cultures-how it is conceptualized and what its lived experiences might mean, can give the direction for how we ought to care for one another. Drawing from my research with Vietnamese Canadian women, I argue that many immigrant women live and practice health care in "in-between" spaces, spaces that belong neither to East nor to West. Thus, supporting immigrant women's health care pra…
