Before I begin I would like to say thank you for this study, although I am aware of the challenges that undocumented immigrants face, this article brings to light a whole different aspect of difficulties I did not consider. I am ashamed to admit that I have never thought about it from this perspective, much learned here. The relationship between fear and its affect on health is very apparent as outlined in this study. Although fear can do many things, to include being a motivator, in the case of undocumented immigrants identified in this study it is paralyzing and results in higher levels of stress. Stress in turn results in significant and cumulative influences on health and health disparities (Reference study here). The three main sources of fear and how it relates to health are: Cost: The population identified in this study, due in large part to being undocumented, had a high rate of poverty, lower educational level, and high levels of transience. As expected this equates to an income level the precludes having health insurance in most cases. Fear experienced by these individuals was rooted not only in the cost that would be incurred from medical care, participants in the study also feared being identified by INS while being hunted down by bill collectors. Adding to the stress of healthcare cost, individuals were forced to choose between paying bills and buying food over paying for healthcare. Sadly, participants in this study looked at their diabetes and knew it would eventually kill them, just not today. Language Barriers, Discrimination, and Immigration Status: Participants in this study felt they were being discriminated against because many could not speak English, some recalled clinic/ER staff blatantly calling out and berating the participants for not speaking English and being in the country illegally. I find this particularly disgusting based on morality alone, medical professionals are charged with providing care to the needy, sick, and injured regardless of who they are. To further the participants stress level, communicating with physicians was difficult and often scary. Participants spoke of being made to feel guilty for needing an interpreter, and when they did have an interpreter, critical parts of the conversation were incorrect potentially causing serious medical issues with the patient. Cultural Disconnect: Participants described having difficulty speaking with medical staff about traditional remedies for the treatment of medical problems, some of the remedies (not all) were very effective in managing health issues with little side effects to the participants, including diabetes. Some individuals were embarrassed about what they had paid for the traditional medicine and that it ended up not working. Cultural disconnect made the participants fearful of what the provider might say about traditional remedies, negative feedback from the provider could potentially “spoil the normal identity of the patient” regarding ...

illegally. I find this particularly disgusting based on morality
alone, medical professionals are charged with providing care to
the needy, sick, and injured regardless of who they are. To
further the participants stress level, communicating with
physicians was difficult and often scary. Participants spoke of
being made to feel guilty for needing an interpreter, and when
they did have an interpreter, critical parts of the conversation
were incorrect potentially causing serious medical issues with
the patient.
Cultural Disconnect:
Participants described having difficulty speaking with medical
staff about traditional remedies for the treatment of medical
problems, some of the remedies (not all) were very effective in
managing health issues with little side effects to the
participants, including diabetes. Some individuals were
embarrassed about what they had paid for the traditional
medicine and that it ended up not working. Cultural disconnect
made the participants fearful of what the provider might say
about traditional remedies, negative feedback from the provider
could potentially “spoil the normal identity of the patient”
regarding his/her culture. (Page-Reeves, et al., 2011)
I absolutely agree structural violence perpetuates health
disparity, this study is a prime example of that fact.
Unfortunately, the scenario outlined in this study is not an
isolated issue with regards to a particular class of people not
having adequate medical care. Along with undocumented
immigrants, the lower income, undereducated, and mentally
impaired often go uninsured and only receive medical care in
times of emergency.

Response Post #1 Culture is defined as customary beliefs, social forms, and material traits of a racial, religious, or social group (Webster, 2019). Competence suggests having the capacity to function effectively as an individual and an organization within the context of cultural beliefs, behaviors, and needs presented by consumers and their communities (CDC, 2015). In healthcare, it is very important to be aware of different culture backgrounds. It helps with not only being able to communicate effectively but also knowing what diseases, sickness, etc. that the person is at greatest risk for. For example, in the treatment of depression, compared with white Americans, black and Latino patients are actually less likely to receive treatment (Ball et al., 2019). The patient I was given is a 14 year old biracial male living with his grandmother in a high-density public housing complex. For the purpose of obtain a health history with this particular patient it is important to consider everything about this patient. The patients age, sex, ethnicity, living conditions, etc. will all need to be taken into account. This particular age group are reluctant to talk and have a definite need for confidentiality (Ball et al., 2019). It is important that adolescent patients be given the opportunity to speak to you privately about concerns or issues that they may have (Ball et al., 2019). It is meaningful that you let the patient know the limits of confidentiality and that if any information provided suggests that an adolescence safety or others safety may be at risk, that its grounds to “break” confidentiality (Ball et al., 2019). Prior to the office visit, there a previsit questionnaires and screeners that the patient can fill out and this sometimes helps allow the patient to write down concerns or have a choice of concerns (Ball et al., 2019). Then based off the answers, it can help you ask appropriate questions during the interviewing process. Based off of the patients age, ethnicity, and living conditions I would use the HEEADSSS screening tool. This screening tool assess the home environment, education/employment, eating, activities, drugs, sexuality, suicide/depression, and safety from injury and violence (Ball et al., 2019). Questions that can be asked needs to be open ended questions such as … Tell me about where you live? How are you liking school? What do you like to do, any activities in school or out of school? Do you ever hang out with your friends outside of school? What do you like to do? Are you ever in situations that make you uncomfortable? Have you ever tried drugs or alcohol? In order to assess for suicide/depression, there are screening tools. The screening questions may include asking about sleep disorders, appetite/eating behavior change, feelings of “boredom”, emotional outbursts and highly impulsive behavior, hopeless/helpless feeling, history of family with depression or suicide, suicidal ideation, history of psychosocial/em.

The issue of medical aliteracy has drawn both scholars and medical practitioners’ attention in the recent years. The negative cost of medical aliteracy has continued to constitute major threats to health related issue which has resulted in high mortality rate, high medical expenditure and medical underperformance among others. On this premise the study examined the influence of medical aliteracy among senior medical personnel. The study employed descriptive research design and Chi-Square to test the research hypotheses. A total number of 50 questionnaires were designed to collect information from the sampled population through a random sampling. From the result of the analysis it was revealed that factors such as ineffective supervision of medical personnel, low patient literacy level, lack of personnel-patients engagement could lead to medical aliteracy among senior medical personnel. Senior medical personnel have the knowledge of medical aliteracy and its implications on for medical personnel and the public. Medical aliteracy has an implication on health sector performance which includes increase in mortality rate, increase health expenditure, widening of the gap between patients – medical personnel communication among others. Perception of medical aliteracy has significant influence on medical personnel performance. The study concluded that, medical aliteracy is prevalent among medical personnel and patients and is associated with many poor medical outcomes in the health sector. It was however recommended that medical literacy training, schemes and programmes should be designed according to the needs of the different medical personnel and should therefore be included in medical professional training programs.
