Experiences and Views of Older Adults of South Asian, Black African, and Caribbean Backgrounds About the Digitalization of Primary Care Services Since the COVID-19 Pandemic: Qualit... by Nisar Ahmed, Alex Hall, Brenda Poku, Jane McDermott, Jayne Astbury, Chris Todd

“…Data were analyzed using framework analysis. ResultsThis paper summarizes the perspectives of 27 older adults from these 3 minoritized ethnic groups and identifies four key themes: (1) service accessibility through digital health (participants faced difficulties accessing digital health care services through online platforms, primarily due to language barriers and limited digital skills, with reliance on younger family members or community organizations for assistance; the lack of digital literacy among older community members was a prominent concern, and digital health care services were felt to be tailored for English speakers, with minimal consultation during the development phase), (2) importance of face-to-face (in-person) appointments for patient-clinician interactions (in-person appointments were strongly preferred, emphasizing the value of physical interaction and connection with health care professionals; video consultations were seen as an acceptable alternative), (3) stressors caused by the shift to remote access (the transition to remote digital access caused stress, fear, and anxiety; participants felt that digital health solutions were imposed without sufficient explanation or consent; and Black African and Caribbean participants reported experiences of racial discrimination within the health care system), and (4) digital solutions (evaluating technology acceptance; participants acknowledged the importance of digitalization but cautioned against viewing it as a one-size-fits-all solution; they advocated for offline alternatives and a hybrid approach, emphasizing the need for choice and a well-staffed clinical workforce). …”
