Assessing Barriers to Breast Cancer Screening Among BIPOC Populations in the Twin Cities.
Purpose: To identify barriers to breast cancer screening in BIPOC/immigrant populations in the Twin Cities metropolitan area and to hear women's voices in these communities regarding interventions that may improve participation in breast cancer screening.
Methods: The study had two components: surveys and focus group discussions. Participants were women by birth, over 30 years of age, and from Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities living or working in Minnesota.
Results: Forty-one participants from BIPOC communities participated. Common themes of barriers to breast cancer screening across all communities were: psychosocial, finances, lack of knowledge, healthcare system, community and culture, and logistics.
Conclusion: Addressing barriers to breast cancer screening in Twin Cities BIPOC populations requires a multipronged approach that addresses knowledge gaps, psychosocial barriers, and logistical and financial barriers, delivered in a culturally acceptable format and in convenient locations.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities reports on the scholarly progress of work to understand, address, and ultimately eliminate health disparities based on race and ethnicity. Efforts to explore underlying causes of health disparities and to describe interventions that have been undertaken to address racial and ethnic health disparities are featured. Promising studies that are ongoing or studies that have longer term data are welcome, as are studies that serve as lessons for best practices in eliminating health disparities. Original research, systematic reviews, and commentaries presenting the state-of-the-art thinking on problems centered on health disparities will be considered for publication. We particularly encourage review articles that generate innovative and testable ideas, and constructive discussions and/or critiques of health disparities.Because the Journal of Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities receives a large number of submissions, about 30% of submissions to the Journal are sent out for full peer review.
