Nurses need to understand marginalized populations to improve healthcare. This study reviews marginalization concepts and recommends geographical information systems for assessing health disparities in diverse groups.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Sociology
  • Nursing

Background:

  • Marginalized groups face societal peripheralization, impacting health.
  • Understanding population diversity is crucial for effective nursing care.
  • Health disparities are often linked to ethnic and cultural differences within marginalized communities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review theoretical models defining marginalization.
  • To explore the use of geographical information systems (GIS) for evaluating marginalized groups.
  • To present a case study on assessing marginal situations using GIS tools and maps.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of theoretical models of marginalization.
  • Description of geographical information systems as an assessment tool.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Case study analysis of marginalized situations using GIS.

    • Main Results:

    • Theoretical frameworks for understanding marginalization were synthesized.
    • GIS was identified as a valuable tool for mapping and analyzing health patterns in marginalized populations.
    • The case study demonstrated the practical application of GIS in identifying and assessing health needs.

    Conclusions:

    • Enhanced nursing knowledge of marginalized groups and diversity is essential for equitable healthcare.
    • GIS offers a robust methodology for the spatial analysis of health disparities.
    • Utilizing GIS can improve the planning and delivery of health services to underserved populations.
