“…Furthermore, studies have shown that the challenges to offering services to the linguistic minority group are due to the lack of professionals who are able to provide these services within OLMCs [34,35]. The smaller pool of bilingual professionals can thus have consequences on the health of these communities [36][37][38].…”

BACKGROUND COVID-19 has highlighted already existing human resource gaps in healthcare systems. New Brunswick's (NB) healthcare services are significantly weakened by a shortage of nurses and physicians across the province, affecting regions where Official Language Minority Communities (OLMCs) reside. Since 2008, Vitalité Health Network (the “Network”), whose work language is French (with services delivered in both official languages), has provided care to OLMCs in NB. The Network currently needs to fill hundreds of vacant physician and nurse positions. Considering these facts, it is imperative to strengthen the Network's retention strategies to ensure its viability and maintain adequate healthcare services that meet the needs of OLMCs. The study is a collaborative effort between the Network and the research team to identify and implement organisational and structural strategies to upscale retention. OBJECTIVE The overarching aim of this study is to support one of New Brunswick's health networks in identifying and implementing concrete strategies that take into consideration its environment to promote physician and registered nurse retention. More precisely, and locally, it wishes to make four important contributions: to identify and (enhance our understanding of) the factors related to the retention of physicians and nurses within the Network; to determine, based on the “Magnet Hospital” and the “Making it Work” frameworks, on which aspects of the Network's environments (internal or external) it should focus for its retention plan/strategy; to define clear and actionable practices to help the Network replenish its strength and vitality; to improve the quality of healthcare services to OLMCs. METHODS The sequential methodology, based on a mixed-method design, combines quantitative and qualitative approaches. For the quantitative part, data collected through the years by the Network will be used to take stock of vacant positions and examine turnover rates. These data will also help to determine which areas have the most critical challenges and which ones have more successful approaches regarding retention. Recruitment will be made from those areas for the qualitative part of the study to conduct interviews and focus groups with different respondents either currently employed or who have left it in the last five years. RESULTS The secondary data analysis on vacancies and turnover rates will identify areas that already encompass good retention practices. The in-depth qualitative results will deepen our understanding of why people choose to stay or why they choose to leave. Expected results for this study should also determine which factors make the Network's internal and external environments attractive. CONCLUSIONS While elucidating the factors that should foster the retention of physicians and nurses in health organizations, with regard for OLMCs, this study will also generate recommendations and solutions that could contributes to a more robust retention plan for healthcare professionals working in language minority communities. CLINICALTRIAL Not a clinical trial

“…Néanmoins, des études révèlent que plusieurs femmes francophones vivant en situation minoritaire estiment que les services disponibles tiennent peu compte de leurs réalités particulières et que l'absence de services en français constitue un facteur affectant leur santé (Andrew, et collab., 2000;Bouchard et Cardinal, 1999;Brunet et Garceau, 2004;Cardinal, Andrew et Kérésit, 2001;Garceau et Charron, 2000). Même si un certain nombre d'études se sont penchées sur l'accès aux services de 25 première ligne ou aux services spécialisés pour les femmes francophones vivant en situation minoritaire, notamment dans le domaine du cancer du sein (Austin, 2004;Gagné, 1999), de la grossesse (Lacaze-Masmonteil, et collab., 2013) et des proches aidantes (Miron et Ouimette, 2006), plusieurs domaines mériteraient d'être explorés davantage, incluant celui de la violence faite aux femmes.…”

Cet article s’appuie sur les résultats d’une recherche réalisée en Ontario et au Nouveau-Brunswick, visant à documenter l’accès aux services en français pour les femmes francophones victimes de violence conjugale et pour leurs enfants. S’appuyant sur les résultats de la première phase d’une recherche-action réalisée en partenariat avec des chercheuses universitaires et des milieux communautaires, les données démontrent que ces femmes sont confrontées à des réalités particulières et que les lacunes dans l’accès aux services en français compromettent leur bien-être, leur santé et leur sécurité. Ces lacunes ont également des impacts sur le bien-être, la santé et la sécurité de leurs enfants. Considérant ces impacts, le manque d’accès aux services en français peut être perçu comme une forme de revictimisation des femmes.This paper draws upon findings from a study conducted in Ontario and New-Brunswick, looking at the access to francophone services for women and children living with domestic violence. Drawing upon the results of the first phase of an action research project conducted in partnership with academic researchers and community organizations, the data demonstrates that francophone women face particular challenges. There are important gaps in francophone services, which have consequences on the women’s well-being, health and safety. Those gaps also have consequences on their children’s well-being, health and safety. Given those consequences, the lack of access to francohphone services can be seen as an additional form of victimisation for women

Cet article présente un inventaire thématique des écrits scientifiques sur le travail social en contexte francophone minoritaire depuis les années 1990 et cherche à stimuler une réflexion sur les rapports entre la recherche et les communautés francophones minoritaires au Canada. La description des thèmes de recherche montre un dynamisme certain de la recherche, une grande diversité d’intérêts, une prédilection pour certaines thématiques dont celles de la santé et de l’intervention auprès des femmes et des personnes immigrantes. Mais il y aussi une absence d’écrits sur certains groupes dont les autochtones, et sur les milieux institutionnels d’intervention. Ces résultats s’expliquent notamment par la structuration des communautés et les conditions de la recherche en milieu francophone minoritaire, et permettent de tracer des voies pour la recherche à l’avenir.This article presents a thematic inventory of research writings on social work in French language minority contexts since the 1990s and aims to stimulate reflections on the relation between research and French language minority communities in Canada. The description of the research themes shows the dynamic nature of this research, its diversity, and its stronger interest in certain themes such as health, and intervention with women and immigrants. It also shows some areas in which this research is strikingly silent, notably in regards to institutional social work settings and to Indigenous Peoples. These results can be explained particularly by the structuration of French language minority communities and by the research conditions within them. As well, they also allow for some suggestions about research themes for the future
