Expériences des immigrantes d’Asie du Sud en matière de respect dans les milieux de traitement du cancer
Abstract
Le but de cette enquête ethnographique ciblée était d’examiner les expériences et perceptions de respect chez les immigrantes d’Asie du Sud dans le cadre des relations professionnels de la santé-clients et ce, dans le contexte d’une clinique canadienne de soins externes. Les caractéristiques du respect telles que décrites par les 11 femmes interviewées étaient la signification du respect, la façon d’être des professionnels de la santé, la façon dont ils s’occupent de la personne et la façon dont ils s’expriment oralement. La langue, les valeurs culturelles et les croyances ainsi que les facteurs sous-jacents d’ordre social, individuel et institutionnel qui coexistent avec l’aptitude des professionnels de la santé à créer le respect, constituaient quelquesunes des dimensions qui influençaient l’expérience du respect chez ces immigrantes. La capacité des professionnels de la santé à voir dans les immigrantes d’Asie du Sud des individus favorisait la formulation/construction du respect pour leur identité individuelle. Le besoin que l’on respecte « mon identité sociale » en tant qu’immigrante atteinte de cancer imprégnait les récits des femmes et ressortait de leurs expériences et perspectives personnelles.
