Racialized communities are known to experience health and healthcare inequities in Canada, including unmet needs across the cancer care trajectory. Yet, the experiences of Panjabi-Sikh patients—one of the largest visible minority populations in Canada—remain largely unknown. This study will examine how the Canadian cancer care system can best address unmet needs of Panjabi-Sikh patients and their families during cancer treatment. 

4-phase mixed-methods 

Findings from this research will help inform the development of system level strategies and policies that better support this patient population's needs. 

 
  1. A scoping review
  2. Analysis of a provincial patient experience survey
  3. Qualitative interviews with patients and families
  4. Focus groups with community leaders and healthcare decision-makers.
