Introduction Telehealth has the potential to address health disparities experienced by Indigenous people, especially in remote areas. This scoping review aims map and characterize existing evidence on telehealth use people explore key concepts for effective use, cultural safety, building therapeutic relationships. Methods A search published gray literature, written English, between 2000 2022 was completed 17 electronic databases. Two reviewers independently screened retrieved records...
Poor indoor air quality poses significant health risks. This study addresses the gap in knowledge regarding prevalence of pollutants remote and rural First Nation communities north-central British Columbia, Canada. Dust samples from 75 homes were collected analysed for house dust mites, pet allergens, mould antigens, bacterial endotoxins. Indoor parameters, including carbon monoxide, dioxide, particulate matter, temperature, humidity, measured. A detailed questionnaire on household...
