Abstract

This study investigated the health care and social service needs, barriers to care and satisfaction with services among American Indians with HIV/AIDS in a western tribe. Individual interviews were conducted with 28 respondents, which constituted nearly the entire population obtaining HIV/AIDS medical services from the IHS in the target area. The survey found that expressed need for services in this frontier rural area were lower than urban counterparts, but that access to needed services was lower. Common unmet medical needs include mental health services, eye and dental care, traditional Native medicine, and substance abuse treatment. Common unmet social service needs include housing assistance, help obtaining food and clothing, and transportation. Limited access to essential services impedes the ability of American Indians with HIV/AIDS to maintain effective medical regimens.

美洲印第安人与艾滋病毒/艾滋病:保健和社会服务需求，护理障碍，并对服务的满意度在一个西方部落。

本研究调查了西部部落美洲印第安人艾滋病毒/艾滋病患者的卫生保健和社会服务需求、护理障碍和服务满意度。对28名答复者进行了个别访谈，这些答复者几乎构成了在目标地区从IHS获得艾滋病毒/艾滋病医疗服务的全部人口。调查发现，边远农村地区对服务的明确需求低于城市地区，但获得所需服务的机会较低。未得到满足的常见医疗需求包括心理健康服务、眼科和牙科保健、传统土著医学和药物滥用治疗。常见的未满足的社会服务需求包括住房援助、获得食物和衣服的帮助以及交通。获得基本服务的机会有限，妨碍了感染艾滋病毒/艾滋病的美洲印第安人维持有效医疗方案的能力。
