Factors influencing PrEP adoption in sexual health clinics within Ontario’s public health system
Introduction: HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) utilization in Ontario is concentrated in two large urban centers, resulting in geographic and structural inequities in access. Little is known about adoption in Public Health Sexual Health Clinics (PHSHCs) or the implementation factors influencing uneven uptake. This study aimed to: (1) assess the extent of PrEP adoption in PHSHCs; (2) identify barriers and facilitators affecting implementation; …
It Shouldn’t Be This Hard”
A key standard of the Canadian health care system is reasonable access to health services for all—yet, this remains unfulfilled for many women facing financial hardships. Women living on a low income are more likely to experience anxiety, depression, and harmful health behaviors. While researchers have explored access among equity-deserving women, few have used a narrative approach and none have applied dialogic or performative analysis— a method…
Diabetes in Liberia
There is increasing awareness that diabetes is a growing public health threat in Liberia. The high mortality and morbidity associated with diabetes have significant implications for individuals, families and communities. The current response to diabetes in Liberia is limited to the management of acute complications. Long-term strategies for the prevention and control of diabetes are almost entirely absent from national health agendas. This brief …
‘The solution is we need to have a centre’
In Liberia, one of the poorest nations in sub-Saharan Africa, the burden of diabetes is a growing concern. The high mortality and morbidity associated with diabetes have significant implications for individuals, families and society at large. The aim of this critical hermeneutic study was to explore what it is like to live with diabetes in Liberia. We recruited 10 participants from Monrovia, Liberia to partake in this study. Photovoice, a well-es…
Meaning of Caring for Someone Dying in ICU
The mystery of death is part of the enigma of life itself. In nursing, being next to someone dying makes us more aware of our strengths and limitations while caring for someone who walks into the unknown. As nurses, we are affected by these experiences, so how do we deal with them? What is the essence of caring for someone dying in the ICU? What makes each experience unique? Through the experience of being with someone as they are dying, we disco…
“I Could Have Stood a Little More Education Rather than Just
Objectives: Providing diabetes self-management education (DSME) in an evidence-based format that is accessible and tailored to the population needs is crucial for individuals living with diabetes mellitus. Our qualitative study explores the experiences of older adults living with diabetes while residing in a rural setting. Methods: Adults aged 65 or older and residing in a rural area of Ontario completed a photovoice activity and semi-structured …
Barriers and facilitators to HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis uptake among transgender women in Colombia
Transgender women [TGW] in Colombia are disproportionately affected by HIV due to their low sociodemographic conditions, varied risk behaviours, difficulty accessing health services, and discrimination. Offering pre-exposure prophylaxis [PrEP] as part of a combination of prevention strategies is an appropriate option for this population to reduce their risk of HIV infection. However, little is known about how to implement a PrEP program for TGW i…
Resolutividade no Subsistema de Atenção à Saúde Indígena (Sasi-SUS)

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar a percepção dos profissionais e gestores de uma Casa de Saúde Indígena (CASAI) a respeito da resolu…
AC-2020-12-1420.R1 – HIV care providers’ familiarity, concerns, and attitudes about HIV PrEP in Colombia
In 2019, Colombia approved the combination of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine for HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP). Therefore, we conducted a situational analysis in HIV-care providers to identify barriers and facilitators for PrEP implementation. A survey was applied to a non-probabilistic sample of health care workers of HIV-specialized clinics. We examined PrEP awareness and familiarity, comfort with PrEP-related activities, per…
Engaging Indigenous youth through popular theatre
In Canada, Indigenous peoples bear a greater burden of illness and suffer disproportionate health disparities compared to non-Indigenous people. Difficult access to healthcare services has contributed to this gap. In this article, we present findings from a dissemination grant aimed to engage Indigenous youth in popular theatre to explore inequities in access to health services for Indigenous people in a Western province in Canada. Following an I…
