Abstract

Objective: This pilot trial aimed to determine implementation processes and outcomes to integrate Basic Worker Health Education (WHEB) in co-ethnic, not directly worker-focused, community agencies that function as cultural-linguistic brokers and service providers to immigrants.

Methods: A Chinese WHEB prototype was developed and implemented at Chinese, Pan-Asian, and nonprofit community-based and Chinese faith-based organizations (N = 8). The implementation process (delivery model choice and areas for change) and outcomes (suitability and adoption sustainability) were evaluated qualitatively.

Results: The agencies selected four delivery models. Five agencies reached ≥70% of their target goal. Respondents described the chosen delivery models as suitable for the varying agency contexts. Three agencies continued WHEB; reasons for continuing or not continuing were identified.

Conclusions: Findings highlight strategies to enhance the uptake and diffusion of worker health educational interventions in community settings.

在社区机构整合工人健康教育以解决移民工人健康问题：一项试点实施试验。

目的：本试点试验旨在确定将基本工人健康教育（WHEB）纳入共同种族（而不是直接以工人为中心）社区机构的实施过程和结果，这些机构作为移民的文化语言经纪人和服务提供者。方法：在华人组织、泛亚洲组织、非营利性社区组织和华人信仰组织（N = 8）中开发并实施了一个中国WHEB原型。对实施过程（交付模式选择和变革领域）和结果（适用性和采用可持续性）进行了定性评估。结果：各机构选择了四种交付模式。5家机构达到了目标目标的70%以上。受访者描述所选择的交付模式适合不同的机构背景。三个机构继续执行WHEB；确定了继续或不继续的原因。结论：研究结果强调了在社区环境中加强工人健康教育干预措施的吸收和传播的策略。
