"Background: Prostate cancer is a pervasive health problem that affects 16 million men worldwide and more than 2 million in the United States (Prostate Cancer Foundation [PCF], 2012). However, Haitian men, of African ancestry, bear a disproportionately higher risk of developing the disease and are more likely to die from it when compared to other ethnic groups. Yet, despite this greater susceptibility to the disease, the scant available literature shows that, for little researched reasons, Haitian men tend not to seek prostate cancer screening. Purpose: The purpose of this project was to explore Haitian-born men\u2019s prostate cancer knowledge, perceptions, and screening practices and to gain insight into why these men do not participate in prostate cancer screening. Theoretical Framework: Irwin M. Rosenstock\u2019s (1966) Health Belief Model was used to guide this project, and Purnell\u2019s Model for Cultural Competence guided the application of the model. Methods: An exploratory qualitative design was used to gather an in-depth understanding of Haitian-born men\u2019s knowledge and perceptions of prostate cancer and prostate cancer screening and the reasons that govern their behavior for not adequately seeking prostate cancer screening. This information was elicited through the voices of the Haitian-born men using a focus group format. Results: Twenty-seven men participated in five focus groups. The following themes permeated though the five focus group interviews represent the men\u2019s ideas, thoughts, and concepts: a) lack of knowledge and need for education; b) misconceptions; c) high risk perception; d) \u201CNeglijans\u201D or lack of personal responsibility; e) embarrassment/shame; f) avoidance for fear of diagnosis; g) lack of resources; and h) \u201CKonsyantizasyon\u201D (consientisation) and \u201CSansibilizasyon.\u201D Conclusions: The findings opened a window into Haitian men\u2019s barriers and enablers that influence their willingness to participate in prostate cancer screening. The study also provided strategies that healthcare providers can integrate in an educational plan or a brochure that is culturally and linguistically appropriate for this population."
