Résumé La tendance actuelle montre que les institutions des services de santé et les gouvernements répondent de façon inadéquate aux besoins de plus en plus nombreux d’accès aux services de santé par les populations vieillissantes du Canada et d’autres pays développés. Après l’analyse de l’enquête post-censitaire 2006 de Statistiques Canada sur la Vitalité des Minorités de Langue Officielle, cette étude démontre qu’outre l’age, et en plus d’autres déterminants, les barrières linguistiques...

Background: The first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic has severely hit Canadian nursing facilities (81% of deaths). To this toll, public health measures (eg, visitation restriction) have subsequently deepened the social isolation and loneliness of residents in nursing facilities (NFs), especially those in linguistic minority settings: Anglophone institutions in Quebec and Francophone institutions outside Quebec. However, very few COVID-19 initiatives targeting these populations specifically...

A recent paper by Bialystok et al in Neuropsychologia (vol. 45, pgs. 459 to 464) suggested that early bilingualism produced a statistically significant 4.1-year delay in onset of memory loss symptoms in older individuals with Alzheimer disease, possibly reflecting an increase in the cognitive reserve of these individuals. That study focused on multilingual elderly patients of whom 90% were immigrants. Our memory clinic, in Montreal Canada, has the advantage of having a large set of...

Les aînés anglophones du Québec hors Montréal ont un accès variable aux services de santé et services sociaux (SSSS). C’est pourquoi notre recherche explore l’accès aux SSSS pour les aînés anglophones vivant hors Montréal. Spécifiquement, nous décrivons les facteurs (facilitateurs et barrières) influençant l’accès aux SSSS. Ainsi, nous avons conduit une recherche qualitative de type étude de cas unique imbriquée. Nous avons collecté les données à l’aide d’entretiens semi-dirigés...

Considering that French is the dominant language in Quebec, that relatively few francophone providers of health and social services are able to speak English, and that English-speaking older adults (OAs) have low levels of bilingualism, anglophone OAs are more likely than their francophone peers to face language barriers when accessing health and social services. However, little is known about the strategies English-speaking OAs put into place to overcome the difficulties encountered due to...

This paper explores Anglophone seniors' participation within the community of the Estrie region of Quebec. A healthy relationship between Anglophone and Francophone communities improves access to state health and social services and relieves the social isolation of those living in rural areas. Immigrant migration to the area as well as out-migration of young Anglophones is profoundly affecting the delivery of health and social services as well as changing family, community, nation, culture and what it means to be a citizen.

Despite the importance of interactions in services, the role language plays in services is an under-researched field. This paper outlines for which services language is especially important. Consistent across studies in three countries (Belgium, Canada and Finland), the findings suggest that bilingual consumers find it particularly important to be served in their native language in high-involvement services. Moreover, for high-involvement services, all consumers find it important to be...

It has been suggested that older adults from minority linguistic and ethnic communities face higher risks of being socially excluded. The aim of this review was, therefore, to explore and review social exclusion studies conducted among official language minority older adults in three countries, namely Canada, Finland and Wales. A rapid review approach was used to review scientific literature in line with six social exclusion domains. The literature searches were made in Finnish, Swedish,...
