Although rape disclosure can facilitate early intervention and improve health outcomes, most undocumented immigrant women do not disclose rape, and little is known about their post-rape experiences. <b>Methods:</b> This critical ethnography explored the post-rape experiences of undocumented immigrant women of Mexican (UIWM) origin living in the U.S. Mexico border region. Data collection and analysis were guided by Carspecken's framework for critical qualitative research. Six women, who identified as UIWM participated in the study. Each was interviewed using a semistructured approach. <b>Results:</b> Interview data revealed three domains: Glimpses of Support, Barrier After Barrier, and Overcoming. In accordance with Carspecken's framework, a theoretical lens was applied to these domains. The application of Feminist Intersectional Theory and Standpoint Theory united the domains into the theme Struggling to Heal. <b>Conclusion:</b> This study suggests that the marginalization of these survivors detrimentally impacts their post-rape experiences and describes the intersections of multiple forces on their experiences, including the cultural and sociopolitical context of the border region. This study lays the foundation for future research aimed at mitigating disclosure and help-seeking barriers for this marginalized group.</p>","PeriodicalId":73240,"journal":{"name":"Hispanic health care international : the official journal of the National Association of Hispanic Nurses","volume":"21 1","pages":"30-37"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10728669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Suicide contributes to high healthcare costs and accounts for numerous emergency department visits. The United States’ Healthy People 2030 Initiative has outlined a goal to reduce the suicide rate overall, and recent data shows that progress is being made (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, n.d). However, despite continuing progress by several health entities (e.g., CDC), suicide remains a critical, complex health problem, with numerous challenges and hurdles (Knox et al., 2004). Practitioners, health educators, and clinicians need to engage in the promotion of equitable healthcare access and increase provider services to populations at-risk for suicide. There has been a rapid increase in suicidal behaviors by adult Hispanic populations. From 2010 to 2020, suicide rates among Hispanics increased by 35.7% for males and 40.6% for females (Khubchandani & Price, 2022). Hispanic males and females were more likely to take their own life by hanging/suffocation methods. Further, in 2020, suicide became the 5th leading cause of death among Hispanic adults in the United States (Khubchandani & Price, 2022), highlighting the need to investigate further these trends and behaviors among this population. Despite a high prevalence of suicidal behaviors, little attention has been given to Hispanic older adults (i.e., individuals >50 years of age). The literature shows that suicide among older adults is not new, in fact Baca-Garcia et al. (2011) found that Puerto Rican women ages 45–64 are at a high risk of engaging in suicidal behaviors, compared to White women (4.4% to 2.4%, respectively). Although Hispanic populations are less likely to die by suicide (Smith et al., 1985), which is likely an undercount, they are also more likely not to have access to healthcare, behavioral health, and preventive health services (Velasco-Mondragon et al., 2016). Further, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (LeFevre & US Preventive Services Task Force*, 2014) recommends greater access to screening for populations who may not have access to such services. Access to screening and care is one of the main protective factors against injury and co-morbid conditions. Tailored interventions (e.g., culturally competent programs designed to instruct others on the warning signs of suicide; increase screening and access to suicide prevention initiatives) are warranted to highlight the potential causes of life-threatening behaviors, such as suicide. A paucity of research has examined the risk factors associated with suicide among older Hispanic adults suicide. There is a critical need healthcare professionals and researchers to focus these issues. Researchers must focus on the factors associated with suicidal behaviors and allow a multicultural lens to influence their research practices. To improve the nation’s health and reach the Healthy People 2030 Initiative, we must focus more","PeriodicalId":73240,"journal":{"name":"Hispanic health care international : the official journal of the National Association of Hispanic Nurses","volume":"21 1","pages":"3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10730313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
