TRS1 1.9 The Role of Technology Use in the Context of Social Isolation Among Immigrant Older Adults Technology has been integrated into every aspect of life for interpersonal support and connections and social isolation has become a hotspot topic for health promotion in nursing among various populations, but little attention has been paid to immigrant older adults using technology to overcome social isolation. The purpose of this narrative review is to comprehend the role of technology use in the context of social isolation, including the predisposing factors, encountered by immigrant older adults to support their psychosocial wellbeing. By studying relevant peer-reviewed articles published in professional databases from 2013 to 2024, 26 articles met the criteria and were accessed for this narrative review, despite an unexpected participant selection preference of older Asian immigrants living in a North American context among these eligible papers. It is discovered that technology use has improved the mental health of socially-isolated immigrant older adults. However, the benefits of technology use for these individuals are constrained by cultural and linguistic differences as well as educational backgrounds. Therefore, technology adaptation should be promoted in this population through a collaborative partnership with healthcare practitioners, educators, researchers and policymakers. There should be further exploration of the interrelationships between technology use and psychosocial support and continuous striving for the most suitable approach for social isolation prevention among immigrant older adults.

A SCOPING REVIEW ON SOCIAL ISOLATION AND LONELINESS AMONG OLDER ADULTS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: IMPLICATIONS FOR INTERPROFESSIONAL EDUCATION Toronto Metropolitan University Publication 2024-11-01 Newcomer Women’s Experiences with Perinatal Care During the Three-Month Health Insurance Waiting Period in Ontario, Canada Background: The three-month health insurance waiting period in Ontario reinforces health inequities for newcomer women and their babies. Little is known about the systemic factors that shape newcomer women's experiences during the OHIP waiting period.
Purpose: To examine the factors that shaped newcomer women's experiences with perinatal care during the three-month health insurance waiting period in Ontario, Canada.
Methods: This qualitative study was informed by an intersectional framework, and guided by a critical ethnographic method. Individual interviews were conducted with four newcomer women and three perinatal healthcare professionals. Participant observations at recruitment and interview sites were integral to the study design.
Results: The key systemic factors that shaped newcomer women's experiences with perinatal care included social identity, migration, and the healthcare system. Social identities related to gender, race, and socio-economic status intersected to form a social location, which converged with newcomer women's experiences of social isolation and exclusion. These experiences, in turn, intersected with Ontario's problematic perinatal health services. Together, these factors form systems of oppression for newcomer women in the perinatal period.
Conclusions: Given the health inequities that can result from these systems of oppression, it is important to adopt an upstream approach that is informed by the Human Rights Code of Ontario to improve accessibility to and the experiences of perinatal care for newcomer women.
