Since the COVID-19 outbreak, a gradual loosening of linguistic obligations in public institutions and governments has been observed in various jurisdictions in Canada. This article argues that in addition to legal requirements to provide minority language services, it is not justifiable for governments to suspend or curtail such services in an emergency situation, for reasons pertaining to public safety and public health. After performing a survey and analysis of government actions against...

Introduction Grâce à diverses recherches menées dans le passé, il a été démontré que le Québec est la province avec les taux d’infarctus aigü du myocarde (IAM) et la prévalence des facteurs de risque cardiovasculaire les plus élevés au Canada. Cette étude proposée effectuera une analyse rétrospective sur les populations caucasiennes, afin d’analyser les facteurs de risque cardiovasculaire dans les populations partiellement francophones par rapport aux Canadiens-Français et non-Français. En...

Evidence suggests that language barriers present obstacles to healthcare access and quality for Francophone seniors in official language minority communities across Canada. Addressing language barriers and providing continuity is challenging, as French language services (FLSs) rely heavily on bilingual providers and the practice of active offer by all staff. This qualitative research used semi-structured group and individual interviews to explore mechanisms supporting FLS coordination and...

Introduction In 2001, 50%–55% of French-speaking minority communities did not have access to health services in French in Canada. Although Canada is officially a bilingual country, reports indicate that many healthcare services offered in French in Anglophone provinces are insufficient or substandard, leading to healthcare discrepancies among Canada’s minority Francophone communities. Objectives The primary aim of this scoping systematic review was to identify existing gaps in HIV-care...

Data collection method was inspired by the first two steps of the Experience Based Design approach (EBD), six focus groups were conducted in strong French...

Background Patients who live in minority language situations are generally more likely to experience poor health outcomes, including harmful events. The delivery of healthcare services in a language-concordant environment has been shown to mitigate the risk of poor health outcomes related to chronic disease management in primary care. However, data assessing the impact of language-concordance on the risk of in-hospital harm are lacking. We conducted a population-based study to determine...

Background Hospitalizations carry considerable risks for frail, elderly patients; this is especially true for patients with dementia, who are more likely to experience delirium, falls, functional decline, iatrogenic complications, and infections when compared to their peers without dementia. Since up to two thirds of patients in long-term care (LTC) facilities have dementia, there is interest in identifying factors associated with transitions from LTC facilities to hospitals. The purpose of...

While over the half of Francophone immigrants living in Ontario come from Africa and the Caribbean, Canadian-trained health professionals are not sufficiently familiar with the health problems that newcomers may face. With this in mind, in a multi-disciplinary partnership, the Center for Rural and Northern Health Research, the Centre de santé communautaire du grand Sudbury, l’Institut du savoir Montfort, the School of Human Kinetics at Laurentian University, and a group of French-speaking...

The experiences of multilingual patients communicating with unilingual healthcare providers have been largely unexplored. The aim of this study was to investigate the experiences of bilingual stroke patients within the Canadian healthcare context. A secondary analysis was completed with data from a multiple case study of the experiences of seven, low-income bilingual Francophone stroke survivors living in a predominately English area. Data included semi-structured interviews, chart reviews...

Purpose: The purpose of this article is to examine access to and continuity of French-language healthcare and social services in Ontario's Champlain region through an analytical framework that incorporates people seeking care, their caregivers and the linguistic component of care into a health and social service system bounded by community, organizational, political and symbolic structures. Methods: Experiences of French-speaking seniors seeking care and those of health and social service...

Language is an important determinant of health, and lack of access to quality, linguistically adapted healthcare and social services negatively impacts users. Besides the lack of bilingual resources, our previous research on Francophone minority community seniors’ trajectories through these services shed light on important and nonobvious challenges currently faced by organizations offering healthcare and social services to this population. Current service provision appeared limited due to...
