Full textThe emergence of cooperatives providing services in the field of health and social services is a rather marginal phenomenon, although their number has increased over the last decades. The SABSA Multi-Stakeholder Cooperative in Quebec City’s Lower Town has been created by nurses and social workers whose aim was to facilitate access to adapted primary care for a population unreached by conventional structures. The objective of this study is to understand the context which has led to the foundation of the SABSA Multi-Stakeholder Cooperative. In order to achieve this objective, a qualitative single case study with embedded units of analysis adopting a methodological perspective inspired by an epistemology of the particular was conducted. Interviews with founding members (n=5) as well as data from interview transcripts conducted with these same individuals for a previous study were used. The results of this research provide details regarding the socio-economic, political, institutional and individual contexts that are liable to contribute to the understanding of the emergence of this model in the province of Quebec. In addition, the results suggest that SABSA's founding members aim to use the cooperative model as an innovation tool with the intention to offer services that were previously missing, inadequate, incomplete or fragmented, in the absence of any possibility to improve the services offered by the current structures. Moreover, the founding members of SABSA use the cooperative model to involve all those concerned in the decision-making process relating to services offered and their organization. Ultimately, the emergence of the SABSA Multi-Stakeholder Cooperative highlights the need and the challenge of organizing dynamic spaces conducive to innovation and collective participation to governance for current health care systems. Keywords: health and social services cooperatives, contexts of emergence, primary care, innovative model, community health

Full textFew data are available on access to integrated trauma systems. We therefore conducted a population-based retrospective cohort study to firstly describe access to trauma care, identify its determinants in an integrated trauma system and secondly evaluate among major trauma admissions, the influence of access on hospital mortality and length of stay (LOS). We included all adults admitted to acute care hospitals for trauma in the province of Québec between 2006 and 2011 using an administrative hospital discharge database. Of the 136,653 injury admissions selected, 75% were treated within the trauma system. Among major trauma (n=25,522), 90% had access to specialized trauma care. The region of residence followed by mechanism of injury, number of trauma diagnoses, injury severity and age were the most important determinants of access to trauma care. Mortality and LOS for the small proportion of patients treated in non-designated centers were similar to those of patients treated in trauma centers. These studies provide evidence that the Québec trauma system performs well in its mandate to offer appropriate treatment to victims of injury that require specialized care.

Full textIntroduction: Major depression, along with suicide, tops the list of health problems affecting the well-being of the Inuit. Improvement in their mental wellness would imply primarily the reduction of gaps in the continuum of services, treatment and support offered. This thesis focuses on the quality of care offered to those individuals in Nunavik who present with a common mental disorder. Three objectives are pursued to verify whether these health care have the potential to provide support to these individuals in their recovery process: 1) assess the quality of clinical processes, using indicators that are both valid and adapted to the context of Nunavik, 2) identify the delays and disruptions in the continuums of care, and 3) identify individual and organizational factors liable to influence the quality of care. Method: This research adopts a descriptive correlational design based on quantitative methods of data collection and analysis. The study population comprises users of primary health services aged 14 years and over, who present with an anxiety disorder or depression. Using clinical records, information on the care offered was colligated for a two-year observation period. Ninety-three individuals from 10 communities in Nunavik made up the sample. Results: A total of 18 clinical process indicators were deemed relevant, measurable and valid indicators to demonstrate the strengths and gaps in the clinical processes. Study of the continuums of care subsequently located the majority of discontinuations around the first follow-up visit (planning and implementation), which indicates that treatment of common mental disorders in Nunavik is built on an acute disease management model. Finally, the principal factors influencing the quality of care were associated with individual clinical factors (type of disorder) and socio-demographic factors (age). Conclusion: This study provides new information pertaining to the clinical processes and continuums of care for mental health in Nunavik. This information has the potential to allow policy makers to base their decisions concerning the organization of mental health primary care services on contextualized information and in so doing, to implement effective and adapted solutions to improve care for the long term.

Full textIn 2003, public health authorities of the Province of Quebec, Canada, published their first national public health program in which a strategy known as the “Support for the development of communities” was included. In order to enrich the knowledge on the implementation of the strategy and its influence on the practice of the professionals mandated to update same, community organizers from the local Health and Social Services Centers, this thesis had three main objectives which were investigated through three different research processes. The first part had for objective to study a community development process. An ethnographic study revealed the complexity of the strategy, underlined the role of the socio-cultural and historic factors and targeted elements to be considered for practice. It also highlighted the importance to adopt a health equity perspective. The second part aimed at describing how the strategy influenced community organizing practices. The analysis of a reflexive practice group, composed of community organizers, helped identify key challenges related to the strategy: the need to clarify the role of community organizers in community development, the difficulties to stimulate and support citizen participation and finally the difficulties associated with this function within the organizational context of Health and Social Services Centres. Finally, the third part sought to identify favourable and unfavourable elements to the integration of the strategy in the practice of community organizers and the organizations that employ them. In addition to the interviews realised in the ethnographic study and the reflexive practice group, nine semi-structured interviews with key actors were realised. The participants indicated that the strategy brings a paradigm shift in favour of health equity, which cannot be achieved without important changes to professional and organizational practices. This thesis has thus contributed to provide new knowledge on the development of communities for the field of public health and the results indicate that it still has to be refined and that its implementation could be improved. In this regard, a heuristic model to generate a conversation between community organizers and public health practitioners, is offered in conclusion.

Full textDes contraintes d’accessibilité aux services de physiothérapie en clinique externe ont été rapportées dans les établissements publics au Canada. Celles-ci se traduisent souvent par un temps d’attente élevé avant d’obtenir des services. Différentes stratégies ont été proposées afin de gérer les listes d’attente, mais leur impact sur le temps d’attente est méconnu, notamment dans le contexte des services de physiothérapie au Québec. Le but de cette étude était de documenter l’accessibilité aux services de physiothérapie en clinique externe dans les centres hospitaliers au Québec. Les objectifs spécifiques étaient de 1) décrire les caractéristiques organisationnelles en lien avec l’accessibilité aux services de physiothérapie, 2) quantifier le temps d’attente pour accéder aux services et 3) explorer l’association entre les caractéristiques organisationnelles et le temps d’attente. Une enquête a été réalisée dans les cliniques externes de physiothérapie des centres hospitaliers publics du Québec offrant des services à des adultes souffrant de troubles musculosquelettiques. Des données ont été obtenues auprès de 97 (99%) centres hospitaliers. Au moment de l’enquête, 18 245 personnes étaient sur les listes d’attente. Le temps d’attente médian était de plus de six mois dans 41% des centres hospitaliers. Parmi les pratiques organisationnelles et les stratégies de gestion de listes d’attente évaluées, les politiques en cas d’annulation ou d’absence (99%) et la priorisation des demandes (96%) étaient les plus utilisées. Selon les résultats d’analyses multivariées, seule l’utilisation d’une méthode de priorisation comprenant une rencontre d’évaluation et une intervention initiale était associée au temps d’attente (p=0,008). Les résultats de cette étude démontrent qu’une grande quantité de personnes sont inscrites sur les listes d’attente des services de physiothérapie et que le temps d’attente peut être très élevé. D’après nos résultats, l’implantation d’une méthode de priorisation comprenant une évaluation et une intervention pourrait permettre d’améliorer l’accès en temps opportun aux services de physiothérapie.
Problems with access to outpatient physiotherapy services have been reported in Canadian publicly funded facilities. The limited access to services often translates into extensive waiting times. Different strategies aimed at managing waiting lists have been proposed, but their association with waiting times is not fully understood, especially in the context of physiotherapy services in Quebec. The purpose of this study was to document access to outpatient physiotherapy services in publicly funded hospitals in Quebec. Specific objectives were 1) to describe organizational characteristics regarding access to outpatient physiotherapy services, 2) determine waiting times, and 3) explore organizational characteristics associated with waiting times. We surveyed outpatient physiotherapy clinics offering services for adults with musculoskeletal disorders in publicly funded hospitals in Quebec. A total of 97 sites responded (99%) to the survey. At the time of the survey, 18,245 patients were waiting for outpatient physiotherapy services. Median waiting time was more than six months in 41% of outpatient physiotherapy services. Among the organizational practices and waiting list management strategies described in this study, attendance and cancellation policies (99%) and referral prioritization (96%) were the most frequently used. Based on the results of multivariate analyses, the use of a prioritization process with an initial evaluation and intervention was the only variable associated with waiting times (p=0.008). Our findings provide evidence that a large number of persons are on waiting lists for publicly funded physiotherapy services in Quebec and that waiting times can be very long. Based on our results, the implementation of a prioritization process including an initial evaluation and an intervention could help improve timely access to outpatient physiotherapy services.

Full textThis research focuses on the use of health and social services by the Aboriginal peoples living in urban areas. Studies on the subject show that there are social inequalities in this population, which results, among other things, in a difficulty in accessing these services. The lack of culturally appropriate services and the presence of discrimination among providers are the two main factors raised by the scientific literature about this issue. In a culturalist approach, the cultural peculiarities of First Nations, Métis and Inuit are put forward to explain it. This study offers a different take on the issue by examining the experience of First Nations people in terms of their relationships with professionals in the health and social services. In what ways do they feel perceived by them? What are the impacts of these impressions on their experience and use of services? The results show that First Nations people experience different experiences, ranging from satisfaction to loss of confidence in the services received. However, the negative elements spontaneously raised by the participants are more often organizational than relational. The First Nations people who participated in this thesis are looking for empathic professionals and egalitarian relationships.

Full textHundreds of people with a severe mental health disorder live in intermediate and family-type resources in the Quebec region. The main purpose of these structures is to integrate vulnerable people into the community. The aim of this research is to determine the impact of intermediate and family-type resources owners’ as well as their employees’ interventions on the community integration of their residents. This study uses Segal and Aviram’s (1978) community integration model as a conceptual framework. Their model proposes to divide the community integration into two concepts: internal and external integration. Internal integration refers to the evolution of residents in the housing environment, whereas external integration concerns the engagement of residents outside the residence. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with residents, owners, and employees of intermediate and family-type resources in the Quebec region. The sample was comprised of 12 actors involved in the field of mental health housing resources including five residents, four owners, and three employees. The data collected were analyzed using a thematic content analysis. The main interventions carried out by owners and employees to ensure the residents’ community integration are grouped into six categories: the establishment of rules, group activities, management of the consumption of goods and services, the formation of a residents’ committee, support for family relationships, and the sustainment of activities independently carried out by residents. It was shown that owners’ and employees’ interventions focus on two objectives: developing residents’ autonomy and ensuring their protection. Owners’ and employees’ authority status is used as one of the main tools to intervene with their customers. Results from this research confirm, but also contradict, previous findings regarding the tension between residents’ need for protection and autonomy, owners’ and employees’ authority status, and the impact of these individuals on the community integration of residents. Keywords: intermediate resource, family-type resource, community integration, mental health, mental illness, resident, autonomy, protection, authority.

Full textIn some of Quebec’s unionized sectors, important initiatives have been deployed in order to prevent mental health problems in the workplace. For over three decades, visionary union representatives have built working peer assistance structures, won important legal struggles and have developed innovative approaches aiming to correct or improve work organization. As the neoliberal ideology and its related work organization principles contribute to intensify work, leading to a weakening of the workers psyche, and as the balance of power favors employers more and more, it seems like an opportune time to survey the experience of those visionary union representatives in order to get a better understanding of union actions regarding mental health in the workplace and its structuring process. This thesis studies Quebec’s union initiatives concerning mental health in the workplace and aiming to prevent and correct problems like psychological distress, burnout, harassment, depression, violence, work related suicide, etc. In order to achieve this objective, a mixed theoretical approach is used. On the one hand, a large philosophical perspective is adopted. Authors Thomas Hobbes, Adam Smith, Karl Marx and Hannah Arendt are referred to in order to forge a better understanding of human interactions and action. By extracting their respective views of the world, of action and of social link, an analytic model is built, which could tie the life experience of union representatives to these different views, therefore achieving a better understanding of the ideological basis on which they built up their action and how it had influenced their individual and collective history. On the other hand, the social experience theory (Dubet, 2009; 1994) is selected as a way to analyze more precisely the work of union representatives. This theory identifies three logics of action, all complementary and in tension with one another, with which all social actors must deal with: integration, strategy and subjectivation. The coexistence of these three logics means that the actor’s experience of the living world is not a simple reproduction mechanism, applying social determination learned from their predecessors. Actors are also subjects of their own experiences and capable of distancing themselves from their own socialization in order to understand their act; they take place in the world in a critic dialectic. This theory sheds a light on what eases or restrains individual and collective action in regard to mental health in the workplace and describes how union representatives mobilize themselves in order to respond to the many needs of their members. This qualitative research uses a life trajectory methodology (Rhéaume 2008; Bertaux 2006). Twenty union representatives describe the suffering work experiences (Dejours, 2008) lived by workers and present initiatives they deployed in order to help them. The situations described by the participants show how some work organization elements are linked to domination experiences (Martuccelli, 2004) and have impacts on mental health in the workplace: the collateral damage of productivism and hyperflexibility, occupational injuries, occupational diseases and horror situations in the workplace, pernicious workplace social dynamics and abusive uses of the judicial system. The study also demonstrates the extent to which union initiatives contribute to solve these problems and the key factors in that regard: interdependence, empowerment, social justice and struggle for dignity. Four categories have been forged to describe those initiatives: social link care with peer assistance, legal defense, collective agreement clauses and actions targeting the work organization. Finally, the thesis presents three union representative profiles: militance which tries to build an us in the workplace, professionalization which tries to have its utility and competence recognized, and the peer assistants which aims to develop an action centered on the self. Their meeting shows the development of a union praxis which promotes and protects dignity of work and workers.

Full textThe introduction of telehealth in the delivery of healthcare and services involves significant, attended or unintended, changes and transformations of various kinds and at different levels: socio-political, economic, organizational, clinical, professional, cultural, human, legal, ethical and technological. The sensitivity of certain issues associated with telehealth points to the gap between a historical vision, known as a technicist (or solutionist), and the actual expectations, needs and contexts of users with respect to its real usefulness and added value for them. It should indeed be noted that in the history of the evolution of telehealth, especially in Quebec, citizen-patients were the major absentees in decisions relating to the development of the services, whereas their involvement could constitute an important lever to inform decisions. In addition, there is a significant lack of research that has addressing the multidimensional and systemic, attended or unintended, negative or positive, consequences of telehealth on individuals and groups (e.g., patients, communities, and professionals), organizations, and health systems. This thesis, composed of two complementary components, aims to: 1) identify the multidimensional and multilevel unintended consequences of ten innovative and large scale telehealth projects that have been implemented in Quebec; and 2) explore the possibility of involving citizen-patients in decisions concerning the development of telehealth services in the cross-perspective of the different stakeholders concerned in Quebec. We used a predominantly qualitative approach. For the first part, the study of the unintended consequences of telehealth, we conducted a secondary analysis of the evaluation data of 10 innovative and structuring projects having been implemented in Quebec, over a 22-year period. The data were the subject of a thematic qualitative analysis based on the model of the unintended consequences of health information technologies (adapted from Bloomrosen et al., 2011). For the second part, the study of citizenpatient involvement in the development of telehealth services in Quebec, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 29 key informants. A thematic qualitative analysis of the data was carried out based on an integrative conceptual framework derived from the diffusion of innovation theories (adapted from Greenhalgh et al., 2004). The first part found that telehealth requires many adjustments, changes and negotiations, which are often underestimated in the planning stages of telehealth projects. In addition, telehealth could be the source of many unintended consequences, sometimes harmful, that affect individuals and groups, health organizations, and the health system as a whole. The second part helped show that citizen-patient involvement in the development of telehealth services is more of a theoretical idea than a real practice in Quebec's organizations and health system, which places it still at the stage of innovation for many shareholders. It remains that despite the many uncertainties and questions that accompany it, this perspective is seen as potentially informing decision-making and helping to implement harmonious and socially responsible telehealth services, this while driving innovation in organizations and the health system. In addition, the results showed that citizen-patient involvement in decision-making is highly dependent on many interrelated organizational and systemic conditions. The gap between research on the issue and decision-making has also emerged, pointing out the need for sustained knowledge transfer for a better translation of knowledge into action.

Full textCe projet de recherche se situe dans le champ de la santé publique et a pour objet l'étude de la pauvreté, de ses liens avec la santé et du rôle que peuvent jouer à cet égard les ressources sociosanitaires. L'étude, qui prend la forme d'une thèse par articles, poursuivait trois objectifs : permettre de mieux comprendre les expériences et les représentations d'hommes vivant en situation de pauvreté quant à cette dernière et à la manière d'en sortir ; mieux cerner le rôle des ressources d'aide sociosanitaires et leur importance relative dans les trajectoires de vies d'hommes en situation de pauvreté ; proposer, à partir d'un savoir expérientiel, des pistes d'interventions pertinentes en matière de lutte à la pauvreté en tant que déterminant de la santé. Ce projet, d'orientation qualitative et participative, a été effectué en collaboration avec un centre communautaire d'un quartier défavorisé de Montréal. Diverses méthodes de collecte de données ont été déployées : un journal de bord, 80 jours d'observation participante, 22 entrevues individuelles semi-dirigées et 6 groupes de discussion avec des hommes en situation de pauvreté. La stratégie d'analyse repose sur l'approche de théorisation ancrée interprétative de Charmaz et sur l'approche des récits de vie de Bertaux. Le premier objectif est abordé dans deux chapitres. Dans le chapitre 3, le premier article de la thèse présente les représentations, recueillies à l'aide d'un outil de type éducation populaire intitulé Mon histoire de vie dans le «rouge, jaune, vert», que les hommes rencontrés se font de la pauvreté et de la manière d'en sortir. Le chapitre 4 analyse quant à lui l'expérience de la pauvreté telle que perçue par les hommes pour en dégager les principales dimensions. En plus de cerner plusieurs dimensions significatives de la pauvreté et de sa sortie, ces deux chapitres montrent que les regards des hommes sur leur propre situation contrastent avec les représentations sociales couramment véhiculées. Dans le chapitre 5, les constats saillants entourant le deuxième objectif de la thèse sont d'abord synthétisés à l'aide de «Charlot Laforce», un outil de validation participative des résultats utilisé dans le cadre du projet. Le deuxième article de la thèse y présente ensuite les expériences des hommes concernant leur choix de ne pas recourir aux ressources sociosanitaires lors de moments de détresse où ils jugeaient pourtant avoir besoin d'aide. Le troisième objectif quant à lui est abordé dans le chapitre 6 où sont rapportées les suggestions proposées par les participants quant aux interventions à mettre en place pour lutter contre la pauvreté et améliorer les services d'aide. Finalement, le chapitre 7 résume l'ensemble des résultats, en apprécie les forces et les faiblesses, et conclut sur les pistes qu'ils ouvrent en termes de recherche et d'intervention en santé publique.
This research project is in the field of public health and focuses on the study of poverty, its links to health and the role health and social resources can play in this regard. The project, which takes the form of a thesis composed of articles, pursued three objectives. First, it aimed to better understand how men living in poverty experience and perceive their situation and conceive of ways to change it. Secondly, it attempted to elucidate how health and social services influence the processes that cause men to fall in, and sometimes escape from, poverty. Thirdly, it drew on the knowledge thus generated to suggest interventions relevant to the fight against poverty. This qualitative and participatory oriented research was done in collaboration with a community Center in a disadvantaged neighbourhood of Montreal. The data were collected through a diary, 80 days of participant observation, 22 semi-directed interviews and 6 group discussions with men living in poverty. We based our analytical strategy on Charmaz's interpretive grounded theory methods and Bertaux's life-history approach. The first objective of the thesis is covered by two chapters. In Chapter 3, the first article of the thesis presents the representations of poverty and its exit collected through a popular education tool named My life course in the «red, yellow, green». Chapter 4, a complementary chapter, presents the experiences of poverty as perceived by men themselves and reveals the main dimensions they see about it. In addition to identifying several significant dimensions of poverty and its exit, the results of these two chapters show how the perspectives of the participants about their situation can challenge commonly held social representations about them. In Chapter 5 we first summarize the main results pertaining the second objective of our thesis with «Charlot Laforce», a participatory validation tool used in the study. The second article of the thesis then presents the experiences of men living in deep poverty regarding their decision not to seek out health and social services in moments of crisis, even when they recognized needing help. The results about the third objective of the thesis are found in chapter 6. Men's suggestions and recommendations of relevant interventions to fight poverty and improve services are offered there. Finally, Chapter 7 reviews the main findings of the study, the limits and strengths of the project and the implications of these results for future research and interventions.

Full textObjectives: This master’s thesis explores the learning gained from an internship experience within an "alternative" model of organization of front-line services and its potential application in subsequent medical practice. Method: The exploratory qualitative study is based on twelve interviews with practicing doctors who completed an internship at La Maison Bleue, our research environment; and three interviews conducted with key informants from La Maison Bleue, and from the health and social services network and academic institutions, involved in the management of internships. Results: The main lessons learned from the internship experience are related to: (1) taking into account people in their globality and in their context; (2) a reflexive perspective favorable to the deconstruction of prejudices and the questioning of norms, leading to a less stigmatizing approach; (3) the richness and scope of enhanced practice from an interdisciplinary perspective; (4) the definition of professional identity. Organizational barriers to the application of learning, based on the philosophy of the health and social services system and characteristics specific to the practice environment, have been identified. Facilitating factors have, for their part, been more identified on the human level but seem to have, ultimately, only a marginal effect on the real capacity of physicians to implement learning into their practice. Conclusions: This study highlighted the presence, within the Quebec health and social services system, of primary care physicians who express a desire to practice medicine differently in order to meet the needs and expectations of populations in vulnerable situations. The results of our study suggest the need for organizational awareness of the barriers that these physicians experience in implementing a practice in accordance with their values, ideals and identities.

Plus précisément, cela consiste à déterminer si les changements ont engendré une dégradation de leur qualité de vie au travail et si cette dégradation a révélé un désirde représentation plus grand. Nous avons réalisé que les gestionnaires intermédiaires vivent une réelle dégradation de leur qualité de vie au travail. Nous arrivons également à la conclusion que les gestionnaires intermédiaires éprouvent un désir de représentation plus fort que la simple consultation sans remettre en cause la structure actuelle puisqu’ils ne souhaiteraient pas une syndicalisation conventionnelle et surtout un grand besoin de reconnaissance de la part de leur employeur.

Full textFew data are available on the use of health services of frail elderly people who have experienced a minor fracture. Currently, information on the identification of frail seniors and on their health resources needs and use mostly comes from cohort studies or from clinical trials. In such studies, frailty is generally measured using clinical indices or scales, which are not included in population-based high-quality administrative databases available for decision-making, population surveillance or research. However, given the expected increase in frailty-related health resources-use associated with population ageing, methodologies to identify frail seniors within such secondary healthcare data, both at patient and population levels, are current surveillance priorities. We therefore conducted a population-based cohort study to describe and identify health services use by this population after a medical consultation for a minor fracture. The objectives of this study were to assess the prevalence of frailty among community-dwelling seniors who sustained a recent non-hip fracture in Quebec health administrative databases, to examine the association between frailty and the use of medical services in the year following the fracture and to measure the excess use of health services following that fracture across frailty levels. There are many reasons to measure frailty, including identification of people who are at an increased risk of adverse health outcomes. This population-based study suggests that seniors identified as frail by the Elders Risk Assessment index and sustaining relatively minor fractures use more health services in the year post-fracture. This first use of Quebec’s administrative databases indicates that, in a public health perspective, it might be possible to use them for surveillance on frailty and its consequences among seniors.

Full textBackground : Nursing workload assessment tools are widely used to determine nurse staffing requirements in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). However, several tools exist and it is unclear if they are equivalent. Objective : We aimed to compare three existing workload assessment tools and assess their association with mortality or morbidity among very preterm infants. Methods : Single-center retrospective cohort study of infants born <33 weeks and admitted to a 52-bed level 3 NICU in 2017 to 2018. Required nurse staffing was estimated for each shift using the Winnipeg Assessment of Neonatal Nursing Needs Tool (WANNNT) used as reference tool, the Quebec Provincial NICU Nursing Ratio (QPNNR), and the Canadian NICU Resource Utilization (CNRU). We evaluated correlation between tools using Pearson R. The association between NICU nursing provision ratio (actual number of nurses / recommended number of nurses per shift according to the tools used) during the first 24h, 7 days of hospitalization and whole hospital stay with mortality / morbidity was assessed using logistic regression models.Results : Median number of nurses required per shift using the WANNNT was 25.0 (interquartile range [IQR]:23.1–26.7). Correlation between WANNNT and QPNNR was high (r = 0.92, p < 0.0001), but the QPNNR underestimated the number of nurses per shift by 4.8 (IQR: 4.1–5.4). Correlation between WANNNT and CNRUwas moderate (r = 0.45, p < 0.0001). Nursing provision ratio during the first seven days of admission calculated using both WANNNT and QPNNR was associated with mortality/morbidity (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] (95% CI):0.92 (0.86-0.99); 0.94 (0.89-0.98), respectively). The association between nursing provision ratios for the first 24h and whole hospital stay and mortality/morbidity was not statistically significant. Conclusion : Lower nursing provision ratio during the first seven days of admission is associated with anincreased risk of mortality / morbidity in very preterm infants.

Full textThis qualitative study aims to extend the knowledge about social work in third line (i.e., hospital-based and specialized) psychiatric services. The outlook of social workers is central in our study as we asked these professionals about the meaning of their duties at work. Interviews were conducted with mental health social workers from the Mental Health Institute of Quebec City. From April to June 2015, 10 social workers were interviewed. They answered a semi-structured questionnaire divided in two sections: (1) social work practice in third line psychiatry; and (2) a practice narrative centered on an actual clinical example. Thematic content analysis based on a codification table with predetermined and emerging categories was conducted. Results and discussion: The central theme of our analysis pertains to the notion of linking, which is viewed as central to social work practices: ties created, preserved, or re-established by social workers, and involving users, families, other practitioners, and other various partners. Social workers enact various roles in third line psychiatric settings. Significantly, the way their role is understood in interdisciplinary teams influences the continuity of the collaboration itself, as well as the achievement of the goals established with clients. The case-centered practice narratives underline that clinical management in third line psychiatric settings need interventions from different collaborators and demand the use of new intervention approaches. Constructive and effective collaborations along with the addition of families in complex interventions provide great support in the realization of the users’ intervention plan or discharge plan. For social workers, the diverse forms of clinical supports, training accessibility and work flexibility facilitate their tasks. Keywords: social work, hospital practice, mental health, psychiatry.

Full textNurse shortage in the province of Quebec is a growing concern for stakeholders and policy makers in the health care and social services domain. Remote areas are particularly affected by this workforce imbalance because of specific challenges they face relatively to their geographical isolation and recruitment problems. Newly graduates from nursing programs in Quebec universities’ represent a recruitment pool of choice for recruiting nurses that are willing to go rural. The main objective of this project is to explore factors that influence final-year nursing students’ intention to choose a rural area as first employment location. A secondary objective of this study is to explore the links between the intention to work in remote area and the availability of information and communications technology (ICT) in these areas. To meet our objectives, a transversal observational study was conducted. A survey based on the theory of planned behavior to which we add the two fallowing constructs: personal identity and telehealth was build and validated for data collection. Different analyses were performed according to the respondent’s background (rural or urban) and this survey allowed the identification of factors linked to the intention to settle in rural area after graduation. For rural background respondents, personal identity, perceived behavioral control and social norm were identified as determinants underlying the intention to settle down in a rural setting. For urban background respondents, personal identity, perceived behavioral control and affective attitude were significantly associated with their intention to settle down in a rural setting. This project contributes to a greater understanding of the elements that could influence the choice of a place of practice for newly graduated nurses.

Full textWithin a context where weight-related problems continually increase, a major public health concern consists of limiting its associated consequences. Amongst some actions put in place towards this goal, the Québec government supports a widespread dissemination of the program called “Choisir de Maigrir?” (CdeM?). Since a program can also become inefficient or harmful if implemented inadequately, the success of such initiative depends especially on the efficiency of its implementation process. The efficiency of this process requires that the program implemented is faithful to the original. However, when faced with the specific culture as well as the type of clientele, adaptations seem to be inevitably performed when a program is transferred into different settings. This work is devoted to the process evaluation of the CdeM? program in terms of adaptations performed by the providers who present it in order to explore the way this issue (fidelity-adaptations debate) matters throughout an implementation process. As reported in the actual literature, every provider’s dyads from the project’s sample have performed adaptations during the implementation of the program. From the program instigators’ perspective, most of those adaptations might have compromised its core components (unacceptable adaptations). In that regards, further analyses could be realized in order to verify if those adaptations will have an influence on the program efficiency. All in all, documentation of adaptations that were realized within a natural context will be able to support certain decisions that pertain to the continual improvement of the program or training and assistance that are currently offer to providers. Keywords: Health At Every Size paradigm, program evaluation, implementation process, fidelity-adaptations debate, core components, providers, instigators.

Full textThis study explores the way Inuit who live permanently in Montreal perceive their health and their ability to maintain and restore it in their local urban context. In partnership with the Qanuikkat Siqinirmiut? project, this research in medical anthropology aims to contribute to a knowledge base on the health and well-being of Inuit living in southern Quebec. Rooted in a critical and post-colonial perspective, the analysis of the ethnographic data collected during this fieldwork focuses on urban Inuit’s perspectives of their health and well-being, as well as their capacity to maintain or restore it, according to the institutional, community and personal resources available in Montreal. As part of the macro-social analysis, we explore how colonization is a historical, political and economic process that still influences participants' options, choices and behaviours regarding their ability to maintain or restore their health and well-being in an urban context. At the meso-social level, we focus on their perspectives and experiences within the professional (the public health system and non-insured health services) and alternative (community and personal resources) sectors of healthcare. Finally, at the microsocial level, we are seeking to capture how participants live, negotiate and define their health and their well-being in order to emphasize the outlines of their conceptualization of these notions. Four dimensions (physical, mental, cultural/identity and social) emerged from the analysis of the popular sector, a sector where depictions of health are individually and collectively defined.

Full textIn the province of Quebec, there is a need to better understand psychologists’ cross-cultural practice, considering that cultural diversity is constantly increasing and that professionalization of psychological cares continues to evolve. Furthermore, empirical research exploring intercultural encounters in the daily practice of health professionals is relatively scarce and recent, especially regarding psychologists. An in-depth review of the literature revealed the difficulties of truly considering culture in cross-cultural intervention and, on the contrary, uncovered the facilitating factors of such encounters. This thesis delves deeper in this literature and contributes to knowledge in the field of cross-cultural encounters in psychology by suggesting a praxeological-intercultural theoretical framework that takes into account psychologists’ intercultural sensitivity, acculturation orientations, relation to knowledge and relation to norms of their profession. This framework was then used to explore the way in which psychologists, working in a private practice in Quebec, represent and experience cross-cultural interventions. To carry out this exploratory study, 21 psychologists were interviewed in Quebec City and Montreal City. All participants had experienced at least one cross-cultural intervention during their career. The sample consisted of both women and men, of varying ages, levels of experience and countries of birth. Private practice was targeted, as it appears to be representative of the profession. First, the informants performed a free association task that was analyzed with descriptive methods. Then, they were interviewed about previous experiences of cross-cultural interventions, to highlight their representations of the culturally different Other, of the cross-cultural psychological consultation and of their own role. A thematic analysis was performed on these interviews. Results were interpreted through the theoretical framework described above. Comparisons were made between foreign-born participants and those born in Canada and between participants reporting more cross-cultural intervention experiences and those reporting less of these encounters. Concerning participants’ representations, findings show that the informants generally do not feel that they step out of their psychologist’s role, even if they discuss several particularities that affect all aspects of their work in cross-cultural contexts. Consultations are often perceived as similar, although some situations generate varying degrees of destabilization. The culturally different Other is predominantly represented as an immigrant in the process of cultural adaptation. This representation arises from a more general representation of the patient as a person experiencing difficulties. The later colors all the conceptualizations carried about the Other and legitimizes the interventions of the psychologist. Individual nuances and positions emerged when analysing practices. All participants expressed an interest for cross-cultural differences and a majority demonstrated a degree of cross-cultural sensitivity sufficient enough to favour some cross-cultural adaptations of psychotherapy. Discourses on acculturative issues mostly reflect a desire for integration of the culturally different Other and less often demonstrate individualistic perspectives. Specific knowledge about cross-cultural issues are generally perceived positively, but their usefulness is sometimes limited in the context of real interventions. Analysis of professional norms shows practices varying between a stronger standardization on the one hand and a consideration of the "inter-normative" aspects of the cross-cultural consultation relationship on the other. Participants were distributed into a typology of the relationship to the culturally different Other after crossing observations from these different theoretical perspectives. Nearly half of them showed a discourse on their practices revealing difficulties with the cultural decentration processes. In conclusion, an attitude of openness, good intentions or even frequent exposure to intercultural contacts is not enough for psychologists to allow them to fully decentre from a purely psychological perspective. A socially shared understanding of the psychologist's role centered on the inner self of an individual living with difficulties may limit the development of broader perspectives. Contributions of the results for cross-cultural training as well as the limits of the current research are discussed.

Full textImmigrant parents of a child with a disability show more signs of vulnerability than other parents. This situation can reduce their availability and alter their involvement in their child’s rehabilitation program. The objective of this doctoral thesis is to determine the expectations and needs of these parents, in order to provide them with assistance adjusted to their living conditions as the child grows. First, a scoping review of the scientific literature is carried out to improve the understanding of existing knowledge on immigrant parent support (Chapter 1). The twenty selected publications indicate that informational support is the most needed, about the child’s condition, the functioning of the healthcare, the social, and the educational systems in the host country, or the support services. Furthermore, the transmission of information may be hampered by non-mastery of the host country’s official languages, or because of intercultural differences between immigrant parents and stakeholders. In regard to the non-use of formal supports, it seems mainly due to the inadequate response of formal services to parent’s expectations, unawareness about parental support services opportunities, and non-perceived exhaustion. Given the few number of documented scientific writings, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 28 immigrant parents of a child with disabilities in the province of Quebec (Canada) as part of a larger study about their communication with stakeholders in early childhood (Chapter 2). The purpose of this second study is to improve the understanding of formal support services use by immigrant parents and the factors influencing their choices. It is worth mentioning that the data gathered is very focused on child services. Informational support and support for decision-making are the formal supports most used by parents, followed by educational support, active listening and financial assistance. Five factors appear to determine the use of formal support to parents: (1) their perception of the child’s condition, (2) access to information, (3) their strategies and capacity to act, (4) the involvement of the informal network, and (5) their perception of their need for support services. Following this first exploratory analysis, new semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight immigrant parents of children of different ages in Montreal and Quebec, to deepen the theme of the use of formal support intended to parents as the child grows (Chapter 3). The interview guide designed for this study focuses on the expectations and needs of immigrant parents to achieve a balance in all aspects of their lives. After an exploratory thematic analysis of the speech of parents and the application of a model of stress and coping, seven main sources of tension are highlighted: (1) the migratory path, (2) the child’s condition, (3) the social and healthcare functioning in the host country, (4) the professional integration, (5) the parent’s relationship, (6) their social network, and (7) the parental health. To cope with these stressful circumstances, immigrant parents mainly use financial assistance, informational support, support for decision-making, educational assistance and transportation support. The expressed satisfaction varies, particularly because of the differences between the expectations and the received services (educational support, active listening, child care), and in terms of the amount of aid received (financial support, information, assistance to decision). An original theoretical model can map the context of the parents in terms of expectations, needs and used supports. If certain periods of the child's life can lead to more stress for parents (diagnosis, school transition, transition to adulthood), the use of the formal supports is further explained by the migratory journey.

Full textCes expériences participatives peuvent être classées selon deux dimensions clés, soit la dimension de participation sous forme d’échange d’information (p.ex., poser des questions) et la participation sous forme d’affirmation (p.ex., exprimer son point de vue). Pour chacune de ces dimensions, les patients discutent également de deux types de participation. Lorsque le patient initie cette participation, il s’agit de participation proactive, tandis que lorsque le médecin invite le patient à participer, il s’agit de participation réactive. Les patients discutent également d’expériences non-participatives, quoique ces expériences sont plus rares. En ce qui a trait aux particularités ethniques et ethnolinguistiques, ces minorités discutent moins fréquemment d’expériences participatives et attribuent ces difficultés de participation à des facteurs linguistiques, tels que la barrière linguistique et à leur identité ethnolinguistique. En conclusion, les minorités ethniques et ethnolinguistiques semblent faire face à des barrières additionnelles qui peuvent poser entrave à une bonne communication et à une participation active en consultation. Il importe de s’intéresser à ces barrières additionnelles, car il se peut que celles-ci expliquent, en partie, les inégalités de santé affectant ces groupes minoritaires. Un Modèle contextualisé de la participation des patients est présenté et discuté, afin de contextualiser les expériences des patients.
Physician-patient communication is a central element in care and a good communication is linked to several health benefits for the patient. However, communication difficulties persist in medical encounters and these difficulties are more present in consultations with ethnic and ethnolinguistic minorities. Previous literature on physician-patient communication present some limitations that restrict our understanding of communication difficulties. In order to improve care, patients’ experiences of this communication must be understood. The first article inserted in this doctoral dissertation consists of a systematic review and meta-ethnography of qualitative studies exploring patients’ experiences of communication with primary care physicians. Three concepts emerged from analyses: negative experiences, positive experiences and outcomes of communication. Most studies in this review did not explore ethnic and ethnolinguistic aspects, but the few studies which did show that ethnic and ethnolinguistic minorities face additional barriers that exert mainly a negative influence on patients’ experiences of communication, namely, language barriers and discrimination. This review illustrates the pertinence of exploring patients’ experiences, with different ethnic and ethnolinguistic backgrounds, with qualitative methods, in order to gain a deep understanding of their perspective. Ensuing from this observation, the doctoral study was developed to explore in detail patients’ experiences of communication. During the interviews, it became apparent that patient participation was a central theme to describe patients’ experiences of communication with physicians. Since an inductive approach was chosen, the emerging objective of this study was to explore patients’ experiences of participation in the medical consultation with physicians. Moreover, we aimed to explore nuances in these experiences of participation according to patients’ ethnic and ethnolinguistic background. Findings show that patient participation is a central theme to describe experiences of communication. Five themes emerged in response to the first objective and these themes are organized in two key dimensions: a) participation in terms of information exchange and b) participation in terms of assertiveness. Across these themes, two types of participation emerged: proactive participation (i.e. patient initiated) and responsive participation (i.e. physician initiated). Patients also discussed experiences of non-participation; however, these were less common. Ethnolinguistic minorities discussed less participative experiences and attributed these difficulties to language barriers and to their ethnolinguistic identity. In conclusion, ethnic and ethnolinguistic minorities seem to face additional barriers which exert mostly a negative influence on their experiences of communication and participation. In turn, these difficulties may engender negative consequences for the patients’ health, thus partly explaining health inequities affecting these minority groups. A contextual model of patient participation is presented and discussed to contextualize patients’ experiences of communication and participation.
