Abstract

It is imperative that we train leaders who are able to intervene efficiently with service users and to support a better organization of the workplace. It is especially important to look at the many issues related to postsecondary training and human resources, such as recruiting and keeping these leading professionals. Accessibility and Active Offer thus combines theory and empirical data to help future professionals understand the workplace issues of accessibility and active offer of minority-language services. This English-language adaptation of Accessibilité et offre active features an additional chapter by Richard Bourhis on issues specific to Anglophone communities in Québec. This multidisciplinary collective work is the first to unite researchers in health, social work, sociology, political science, public administration, law and education, in order to gain more thorough knowledge of linguistic issues in health and social services, as well as of active offer of French-language services. Published in English.

Abstract

Pour les communautés francophones en situation minoritaire (CFSM), l'offre active des services de santé et des services sociaux en français est une question de qualité, de sécurité, d'humanisation des soins et services, de droit et d'équité, et d'éthique professionnelle. Les enjeux liés à la formation postsecondaire et aux ressources humaines, notamment au recrutement et à la rétention des professionnels, sont particulièrement importants, car il est essentiel de former des leaders capables d'intervenir efficacement et de soutenir une meilleure organisation des milieux de travail.  Ainsi, cet ouvrage combine la théorie et les données empiriques pour se diriger vers l'action afin de permettre aux futurs professionnels de mieux saisir les enjeux de l'accessibilité et de l'offre active de services en français qui se posent en milieu de travail. Cet ouvrage collectif multidisciplinaire est le premier à réunir des chercheurs en santé, en travail social, en sociologie, en science politique, en administration publique, en droit et en éducation, afin d'approfondir les enjeux linguistiques en matière de santé et de services sociaux, de même que d'offre active de services en français.

Abstract

During the Jim Crow era, Florida's public health nurses, mostly white and a few black women, tackled the state's public health issues born of race, climate, geography, and poverty. These pioneering professional women were often the only ones available to deliver current health improvement information into the homes of people who were out of the reach of modern medical care. They found innovative ways to build a bridge between the communities they served and public health policies, both state and federal, that addressed the threats of infection and the high infant and maternal mortality levels. Competing cultural constructions of health shaped their groundbreaking efforts to reach and serve underprivileged members of each race, whether to prevent illness and disease or to improve childbirth and general wellbeing.

Abstract

In the wake of the economic and financial crisis, many European governments have cut spending on healthcare services. At the same time, unemployment, financial strain and reduced prevention have increased the need for certain healthcare services, while falling disposable income has made access to healthcare more difficult for many EU households. This report identifies the groups most likely to face barriers to healthcare as a consequence of the crisis, including a number of new groups that have been generally overlooked by policymakers. It suggests a range of policy pointers, including the need to consider mitigating measures in tandem with policy reform, and suggests policymakers and service providers might consider reviewing crisis responses once financial pressures on EU Member States begin to ease. An executive summary is available.
