Description

For many Chinese immigrants in the United States, access to cancer education and screening is a long and difficult journey. This book contains powerful and vivid narratives and stories of 39 Chinese men and women who were open in sharing their perspectives, experiences, as well as pain and frustrations in accessing health care. Findings revealed that the concept of ¿prevention¿ in the Chinese culture was based on holistic views of health and yin-yang balance principles. These beliefs governed the health behaviors, lifestyle, and daily diet of Chinese immigrants. Many misunderstood what actually caused cancer. Ignorance and confusion on risk factors and causes of cancer resulted in them not engaging in appropriate cancer screening activities. Access barriers to health care such as red tape and bureaucracy, lack of availability in doctor¿s schedule, and provider insensitivity to their concerns were typical stumbling blocks they came across. This book should be especially helpful to health care professionals who may design and implement culturally relevant cancer education and screening programs for minority and immigrant populations.
