摘要

Objectives: Travellers are a minority population in Ireland and Great Britain, who have poorer health statusnthan the general population. This study aims to investigate Traveller health service utilization andnexperiences of health service quality.nMethods: Community-based census survey of all Traveller households on the island of Ireland in 2008 andn2009. Comparisons were made with survey data from a nationally representative sample of the Irish generalnpublic entitled to means-tested general medical services from the INSIGHT ‘07 survey.nResults: Valid responses were provided by 1,947 Traveller respondents (32.5% males). Travellers reportednsignificantly higher use of hospital services including Emergency Room services (sex- and age-adjustednrelative risk (RR) 2.37, 95% CI 1.99–2.82) and mental health services (adjusted RR 2.89, 95% CI 2.02–4.14).nThey described significantly poorer quality health care experiences than did the comparator population, withnfewer Travellers expressing trust in caregivers (adjusted RR 0.51, 95% CI 0.47–0.55) and rating the quality ofnhealth service they received as being very good or excellent (adjusted RR 0.59, 95% CI 0.55–0.64). Afternmultivariable adjustment for the dimensions of service quality, population (Traveller or INSIGHT ‘07) wasnnot associated with an overall rating of health service quality.nConclusions: Travellers report greater use of and adequate access to health services, but describe a consistentlynpoorer quality health care experience. This quality gap has implications for Traveller engagement with healthncare professionals
