Ukrayna-Rusya Savaşı’ndan Etkilenen Bir Grubun Sağlık Açısından Değerlendirilmesi: Nitel Bir Araştırma

Öz

Göç, savaş durumlarında sıklıkla karşılaşımıza çıkmaktadır. Göç süreci yeni sağlık sorunlarının ortaya çıkması, ekonomik sıkıntılar, sosyal sorunlar gibi pek çok olumsuzluğu bünyesinde barındırmaktadır. Katılımcılardan elde ettiğimiz verilerle katılımcıların karşılaştığı sağlık sorunları, göç sürecindeki tüm olumsuz durumlar ve bu durumlarla baş etme yolları ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Bu nitel çalışmanın amacı, Ukrayna'da yaşayan veya savaş sonrası göç eden Ukraynalıların sağlık durumlarını ve sağlığa etki eden bağlamsal faktörleri araştırmaktır. Araştırma nitel desende bir durum çalışması olup, savaşın olumsuz etkilerini yaşamış bir grup katılımcıdan veriler toplanmıştır. Araştırmada deneyimleri betimlemek, açıklamak ve temaları ortaya çıkarmak amacıyla tematik içerik analizi ve betimsel analiz yapılmıştır. Bu amaçla yapılan içerik analizinde verilerin kavramsallaştırılması ve olguyu tanımlayabilecek temaların ortaya çıkarılması amaçlanmıştır. Tematik analizde beş tema ortaya çıkmıştır. "Sağlık çıktıları" temasında altı, "Göç sürecindeki zorluklar" temasında dört, "Sağlık hizmetlerine erişim" temasında beş, "Uyum" temasında altı, "Başa çıkma stratejileri" temasında ise beş kategori yer almaktadır. Çalışmamızda gelişmekte olan bir ülkede savaşın insan yaşamını doğrudan nasıl etkilediği, bireylerin temel ihtiyaçlarının karşılanmasında karşılaştıkları sorunlar, sosyal hak ve özgürlüklerin ne ölçüde kısıtlandığı ortaya konulmaktadır.

Health Evaluation of a Group Affected by the Ukraine-Russia War: A Qualitative Research

Öz

Migration occurs frequently in war situations. The migration process involves many negativities such as the emergence of new health problems, economic difficulties and social problems. With the data we obtained from the participants, the health problems faced by the participants, all negative situations during the migration process and ways to cope with these situations were revealed. The aim of this qualitative study is to investigate the health status of Ukrainians living in Ukraine or those who emigrated after the war and the contextual factors affecting health. The research is a case study with a qualitative design, and data was collected from a group of participants who experienced the negative effects of the war. In the research, thematic content analysis and descriptive analysis were conducted to describe and explain experiences and reveal themes. In the content analysis conducted for this purpose, it was aimed to conceptualize the data and reveal themes that could describe the phenomenon. Five themes emerged from the thematic analysis. There are six categories under the theme of "Health outcomes", four categories under the theme of "Difficulties in the migration process", five categories under the theme of "Access to healthcare", six categories under the theme of "Adaption", and five categories under the theme of "Coping strategies". Our study reveals how war directly affects human life in a developing country, the problems individuals face in meeting their basic needs, and the extent to which social rights and freedoms are restricted.
