This article presents a literature review on the experiences of patients and their healthcare providers with respect to healthcare services offered in Canada to official language minority communities (OLMCs). Commissioned by the Official Language Community Development Bureau (OLCDB), it portrays the realities of access to care, as well as challenges and barriers that impede the delivery of health services and access to care for OLMCs in the official language of choice. The review offers recommendations for patients, healthcare providers, healthcare facilities, the various levels of government in Canada and researchers. Reflections also take place regarding the lack of systemic implementation of evidence-based strategies despite decades of research on these issues.
