abstract: 'The number of migrant workers in Taiwan increases annually. The majority
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
is from Indonesia and most of them are female caregivers. This study
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
aims to determine the access to health services and the associated
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
factors among Indonesian female domestic workers in Taiwan. In this
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cross-sectional study, data were collected from February to May 2019,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
using a structured questionnaire. Subsequently, multiple logistic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
regression was used to examine the association between socio-demographic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
factors and health service access. Two hundred and eighty-four domestic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
migrant workers were interviewed. Eighty-five percent of the respondents
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
declared sickness at work, but only 48.8\% seek health care services.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Factors associated with health service access were marital status,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income, and the availability of an attendant to accompany the migrant
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
workers to the healthcare facilities. Language barrier and time
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
flexibility were the main obstacles. Further research and an effective
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health service policy are needed for the domestic migrant workers to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
better access health care services.'
