abstract: 'This study aimed to ascertain the systemic barriers encountered by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
oncology health professionals (HPs) working with patients from ethnic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
minorities to guide the development of a communication skills training
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
programme. Twelve medical and five radiation oncologists and 21 oncology
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nurses were invited to participate in this qualitative study.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Participants were interviewed individually or in a focus group about
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their experiences working with people from minority backgrounds. All
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
interviews were transcribed verbatim and analysed thematically. HPs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
encountered language and communication barriers in their interactions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with patients and their families, which were perceived to impact
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
negatively on the quality and amount of information and support
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
provided. There was a shortage of, and poor processes for engaging,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
interpreters and some HPs were concerned about the accuracy of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
interpretation. HPs expressed a need for training in cultural awareness
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and communication skills with a preference for face-to-face delivery. A
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
lack of funding, a culture of learning on the job, and time constraints
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
were systemic barriers to training. Oncologists and oncology nurses
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
encounter complex challenges in clinical interactions with minority
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
patients and their families, including difficulties working with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
interpreters. Formal training programmes targeted to the development of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
culturally competent communication skills are required.'
