This qualitative study aimed to understand the strategies of families in the pursuit of health care for children treated in a Pediatric Emergency Department. Semi-structured interviews were held with twelve family caregivers of children attended in PED at a teaching hospital in the period March-June 2013. The data were analyzed based on the premises of content analysis. Results showed that the lack of problem-solving ability of primary care health services increases the demand for emergency care services. Relatives seek the Pediatric Emergency Department as first choice care, weaving alternative networks as a strategy to ensure quality care for their children. The restructuring of health services is recommended, based on the attributes of primary health care, overcoming the current paradigm, focused on the disease and medical consultation with one that considers comprehensive care for children and their family.

ABSTRACT Objective: To understand children’s satisfaction and dissatisfaction with pain management in the pediatric emergency department. Method: Exploratory-descriptive qualitative study performed with children between 6 and 12 years of age and use of semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis of data. Results: Nineteen children were interviewed. The results were organized in two themes: Theme 1 - Satisfaction perceived by children regarding pain management, which included three subthemes, namely: Priority care and quick pain relief, Basic needs met and Embracement by the team; and Theme 2 - Dissatisfaction perceived by children regarding pain management, which included three subthemes: Painful procedures, Uncomfortable environment and Delay in pain relief. Conclusion: Children’s satisfaction with pain management was observed to be much more than pain relief or priority service, and also included the pediatric emergency department environment and embracement by the team. Care should be directed to children’s singularities, that is, a care built from the understanding of the experience from children’s point of view.

Refugees face considerable challenges upon seeking asylum in Canada, and accessing health care services remains a prominent issue. Recurrent themes in the literature outlining barriers to health-services accessibility include geographic, economic, and cultural barriers. Drawing on the experiences of service providers in Hamilton, Ontario, we explored the efficacy of telemedicine services in bridging the gap between refugee health and health services accessibility. Research methodology included structured interviews with clinicians who provide health-care services to refugees, complemented by a scoping literature review. The results of this exploratory study demonstrate the efficacy of telemedicine in encouraging dialogue and policy change in the greater health-care setting, and its potential to increase access to specialist health-care services.
