2 Missouri Foundation for Health
3 Differences in specific health risks Disproportionate distribution of health care providers Mediating factors of poverty and ethnicity Women s unequal social and economic status
4 Limited access to services Lack of insurance (over 1/3) Lack of awareness of available services Language barriers Isolation Worsened health status associated with increased duration of stay in U.S.
5 The purpose of this assessment was to: 1) assess perceived access to health services 2) document the perceived health status of older rural Missouri women
6 Two focus groups (N =25 ) Hispanic women Semi-structured interview guide and written informed consent translated into Spanish and back-translated into English. Dinner served and participants given gift card for participation. Group conducted by native Spanish speaker Transcripts recorded, transcribed and translated by native Spanish speaker. Content analysis
7 Hypertension Diabetes Stress including anxiety and sleeplessness Chronic pain Issues related to menopause.
8 The interrelated challenges of minimal personal and infrastructure resources Denial A badly stretched primary care system Need for improved health literacy Much cross-over between themes
9 Costs (medications; seeing consultants; little value for the money paid) Uninsured and Underinsured Transportation
10 One must look for someone to take you, interpret what you have, and pay the person. If you do not have someone to take you, you have to find someone to take you and pay. Because there is not even a bus here. Anyway there is not even a doctor. And then you lose a day of work and you need to look for the person to take you. Lose one day you get a point and then they fire you because of the points. You even lost a job for going to the doctor. Many do not go to the doctor for not losing points at work.
11 one often self-medicates. I was taking birth control without supervision, then I didn t want anymore babies but I took them without prescription. I took them and had accumulated hormones and they had to do a hysterectomy on me because I developed cancer cells because of self-medicating and so that is a big problem
12 Then again, often our fear is that some weekend or at midnight we can be serious or something and we are afraid to go to the hospital because we do not have money to pay; no facilities that is our fear. We are afraid to die at home, but more afraid to go to the hospital. and like me. I have diabetes and I have no medicine, no money to pay for the consultation and then I wait up to 3 or 4 months go to, really, one has to pay for a visit and the medicine too. So I try to endure and then when I got there the doctor scolds me. How will I pay? I prefer to put up with it and when I go, I have worse diabetes, more intense.
13 There are many people who do not do checkups because they don t want to know if they have something wrong. But with time anything can be healed. Everything can be healed with time. I m afraid because when I go to a doctor he will say I have bad things, serious, and I will have real problems. Thinking like that, thinking what if I get sick of it? And then it comes and one gets sick of what one is thinking.
14 Lack of Trust in the System You don t know if they are going to help you or not going to help you Discourtesy They treat you badly for being Spanish Frequent lack of interpretive services One does not go because one does not know how to say anything. Better not to go
15 Women desire information More information about health and preventing health problems How to take blood pressure How to manage stress Menopause education
16 Validate findings with population Identify potential solutions/interventions and how they can be implemented with target populations, key stakeholders, and health care providers Continue to collect and analyze quantitative health provider data
17 Health Promotoras program that would recruit older women in the community and train them to become part-time case finders and health educators within their own communities. Help women build social support for stress reduction and emotional support.
