  • Misipawistik Cree Nation Caregivers' Experiences of Renal Replacement
    Running Head: FIRST NATIONS EXPERIENCES OF RENAL THERAPY Misipawistik Cree Nation Caregivers’ Experiences of a Family Member Requiring Renal Replacement Therapy in The Pas, Manitoba: A Descriptive Qualitative Study by Crystal Cook A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba In partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF NURSING College of Nursing University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2018 by Crystal Cook FIRST NATIONS EXPERIENCES OF RENAL THERAPY i Abstract Historical and contemporary factors have impacted First Nations People to the extent that they are at greater risk for diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Optimal treatment modalities would improve conditions; however, delivery is complex. Explorations on the experience of living with CKD among First Nations are limited. Although discourse about how to care for older First Nations has been taking place for some time in Canada, little research exists on the needs and challenges of caring for family members who live on-reserve with end stage renal disease. This gap is especially notable when First Nations’ understandings and conceptualizations of health and wellness are considered. Guided by decolonizing methodologies and two-eyed seeing, this study enlisted a qualitative descriptive approach with snowball and purposive sampling, semi-structured interviews, reflective journals and member checks. Eight First Nation family members volunteered to participate. Participants conveyed a resiliency, subsequent to Miyopimatisiiun (Cree way of life) across relations with Indigenous and non- Indigenous contexts to fortify care and support of the family member requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT). This study establishes the experiences of Misipawistik Cree Nation caregivers, demonstrates the distinct needs of First Nations individuals, families and communities facing CKD, and supports previous studies on barriers to the wellbeing of Indigenous patients with CKD and caregivers in Northern Manitoba.
