Whilst qualitative research has identified the barriers and enablers to sexual healthcare engagement among young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in remote settings, little is known about the ways in which young people navigate sexual healthcare in a regional setting. This study aims to address this gap. Sixty-five young (aged 15–29) Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people participated in semistructured interviews across three regional communities in New South Wales, Australia. The candidacy framework informed this analysis. A large proportion of participants expressed having agency and resources to attend health services for SRH needs (primarily STI testing and contraception). Women in particular described being supported by social networks to access SRH services. Male participants were less likely to identify their own candidacy for healthcare. Services that were culturally safe and had trustworthy, nonjudgemental staff and a feeling of community were easier to access (more permeable). Factors that decreased accessibility were confidentiality concerns, difficulty making appointments, and lack of visibility of services, or what they offer. Using the candidacy framework, this study identified the importance of culturally safe service provision, reducing barriers to accessing appointments and the provision of nonjudgemental care in engaging young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in SRH care. This study also highlighted the various strategies and actions that young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are already taking to protect their sexual health and that of their partners.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48195,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Care in the Community","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/1845971","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142404555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 2020, figures estimated that 39 million preschool children worldwide, experienced overweight or obesity. Global prevalence has almost tripled in the last 40–50 years. The number of preschool children impacted makes it severe enough to be one of the most serious public health challenges for the 21st century, which could be addressed during infancy, for improved short- and long-term health outcomes. <i>Objective</i>. Research in a local Trust providing health visiting services in the northeast of England aimed to describe and interpret the interaction between UK parents and health visitors around infant weight (0–2) in delivering the UK Healthy Child Programme. <i>Methods</i>. The research paradigm was social construction, and interpretative phenomenology enabled the interpretation of experiences of self and everyday situational encounters or participants lived experiences. The research applied theoretical perspectives of hermeneutic phenomenology and symbolic interactionism. Purposive sampling recruited 14 parents and 20 health visitors, and 4 focus groups and 8 semistructured interviews were completed. Data analysis was thematic. <i>Findings</i>. Interaction between health visitors and parents around infant weight was complex. Assumptions were made, and the interaction was open to misinterpretation. This impacted the integrity of the conversation. Managing infant weight was superseded by other public health needs of parents. There was no obvious approach to assessment of infant weight that might be exceeding normal growth centiles, whole family approaches, or risk assessment. Infant weight remained an emotive subject for parents and health visitors, and this governed how it was addressed. <i>Conclusion</i>. While existing research has emphasised that infant weight is a sensitive issue to raise with parents, this research is unique, providing detailed implications for UK health visitors and recommendations for future management of infant weight within the UK Healthy Child Programme.

These interviews, conducted in 2022, specifically focus on the participants’ lived experiences of migration and adaptation within the Italian context. Findings reveal that economic motivations are a primary driver intertwined with aspirations for personal and familial advancement. However, the research also highlights the challenges faced by these women, including precarious employment conditions, emotional strain due to family separation, and complexities of integration within the host society. Social networks and transnational ties emerge as crucial factors influencing both the decision to migrate and the subsequent adaptation process. The analysis underscores the duality inherent in care work migration: While it bolsters the Italian care economy and offers economic opportunities for the migrants, it simultaneously exposes them to vulnerabilities such as job insecurity and potential exploitation. By investigating this migration of care workers, the research contributes to the field of welfare economics by clarifying the economic ramifications of gendered occupational segregation and migration status.

Recognising that health status is inextricably impacted by social determinants of health, community paramedicine has opportunities and a responsibility to reduce inequities. The objective of this scoping review was to investigate the peer-reviewed and grey literature to explore how community paramedicine supports community needs along a health and social continuum. We conducted a scoping review of the English language literature using the JBI Scoping Review methodology. We searched CINAHL, EMBASE, MEDLINE, Google Scholar, and organisational websites. 30 peer-reviewed and 13 grey literature articles met the inclusion criteria. The findings describe the ways community paramedicine models evolved from minimising system pressures on emergency health services to addressing health and social needs. A key recommendation across the literature was the need to meaningfully engage communities early in the program development to understand how best to implement and codesign integrated service models addressing specific community needs although there was a lack of evidence to guide this approach. There is a notable lack of evidence pertaining to optimising technologies in the program design and implementation. The results highlight opportunities to determine the best practices for conducting holistic community needs assessments that include equitable stakeholder engagement and enhancing education to prepare paramedics for expanded roles. Community paramedicine provides opportunities to better meet the needs of structurally marginalised communities.
