Article Synopsis
- Native American communities, especially in rural Eastern regions, faced significant challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, but their experiences have not been extensively studied.
- A qualitative research project conducted in 2022 with 24 individuals from five South Carolina tribal groups highlighted themes such as resiliency stemming from family and tribal connections despite various adversities.
- To improve public health responses, it is recommended to collaborate with community leaders for culturally sensitive health interventions and to use alternative communication methods to enhance healthcare access in these areas.
