Abstract

This study examines the accessibility of gynecological healthcare services for immigrant women in Canada and explores the impact of immigration policies on their healthcare access. With a diverse immigrant population, Canada’s healthcare system faces the challenge of addressing disparities in healthcare utilization among newcomers. We investigate the barriers faced by immigrant women in accessing gynecological care, including language barriers, cultural and stigma-related challenges, and economic factors. We analyze government initiatives and community programs aimed at improving healthcare access for immigrant women. The study concludes with policy recommendations and strategies to promote awareness, emphasizing the importance of a comprehensive approach to ensure equitable healthcare access for all immigrants in Canada.
移民政策下加拿大妇科医疗服务的可及性
本研究调查了加拿大移民妇女获得妇科医疗服务的情况,并探讨了移民政策对她们获得医疗服务的影响。由于移民人口的多样性,加拿大的医疗保健系统面临着解决新移民在医疗保健使用方面的差异的挑战。我们调查了移民妇女在获得妇科医疗服务时所面临的障碍,包括语言障碍、文化和耻辱相关的挑战以及经济因素。我们分析了旨在改善移民妇女获得医疗服务的政府举措和社区计划。研究最后提出了政策建议和提高意识的策略,强调了采用综合方法确保加拿大所有移民公平获得医疗保健服务的重要性。
