Abstract ABSTRACT
Aims: To identify and appraise existing literature on SRH services for ethnic minority women in the UK. The study examines four dimensions: service provision for ethnic minority women for their Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) needs in the UK; the challenges ethnic minority women face with healthcare service providers; factors that contribute to inequality; and strategies implemented to improve access to SRH services in the UK.
Design: A systematic literature review.
Data Sources: The search was conducted across Amed, CINAHL and Medline/Pubmed examining studies conducted between 2013 and 2023.
Review Method: The methodological quality of the included studies was appraised using the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN,2014) quality assessment tool.
Results: Data from nineteen studies met the criteria for inclusion.
Conclusion: This report finds that whilst the UK has made progress in addressing the needs of ethnic minority women in this space, much still can be done: tailoring care to better address needs; increasing cultural knowledge and understanding among healthcare staff; provision of service in multiple languages; fostering partnerships with community organisations; and involving ethnic minatory women more in service design.
Impact: This study acknowledges that this field would benefit from further research. Addressing this will contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the challenges, barriers, and strategies for improving SRH services for ethnic minority women in the UK. It is hoped that this knowledge can further inform evidence-based interventions and policies that promote health equity and ensure equitable access to culturally sensitive SRH services for all women.
