Abstract

This paper presents a qualitative report of semi-structured interviews with 10 Panjabi women who are caregivers to men (specifically husbands) with substance use disorder (SUD) in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada. Core themes identified depict the significant burden caregivers carry due to managing simultaneous financial and parenting duties, negative emotional impacts of caregiving, and attempts to conceal substance use by both the participants and their husbands. Despite this, all participants shared nuanced reasons to stay in their marriage, including for their children, for financial stability or to avoid stigmatization. Participants emphasized the need for culturally competent care, family involvement in SUD treatment, compassion toward people with SUD and increased resources for women caregivers.

从阴影中浮现:一份关于旁遮普妇女护理人员与物质使用障碍伙伴的定性报告。
本文对加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省萨里的10名旁遮普妇女进行了半结构化访谈,这些妇女是患有物质使用障碍(SUD)的男性(特别是丈夫)的照顾者。确定的核心主题描述了照顾者由于同时管理经济和养育子女的责任而承担的重大负担,照顾者的负面情绪影响,以及试图隐瞒参与者及其丈夫的药物使用情况。尽管如此,所有参与者都分享了维持婚姻的微妙原因,包括为了孩子、为了经济稳定或为了避免被污名化。与会者强调需要文化上合格的护理、家庭参与SUD治疗、对SUD患者的同情以及增加女性护理人员的资源。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse presents rigorous new studies and research on ethnicity and cultural variation in alcohol, tobacco, licit and illicit forms of substance use and abuse. The research is drawn from many disciplines and interdisciplinary areas in the social and behavioral sciences, public health, and helping professions. The Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse is an international forum for identification of emergent and culturally diverse substance use and abuse trends, and the implementation of culturally competent strategies in harm reduction, individual, group, and family treatment of substance abuse. The Journal systematically investigates the beliefs, attitudes, and values of substance abusers, searching for the answers to the origins of drug use and abuse for different ethnic groups. The Journal publishes research papers, review papers, policy commentaries, and conference proceedings. The Journal welcomes submissions from across the globe, and strives to ensure efficient review and publication outcomes.
