Study: WOMEN'S HEALTH IN RURAL COMMUNITIES (WHIRC)
Info: For some young rural Nova Scotian women, access to health care provided by specialized physicians and other specialized health professionals (eg., physiotherapists, dieticians and psychologists) carries with it a variety of challenges. For example, some women must arrange childcare and transportation in order to access specialized care which can be quite challenging. This research study used one-on-one interviews to explore the supports and challenges young rural women experienced when accessing specialized health care.
