Only a small number of families of Arab descent are known to have settled in the Pacific Northwest before 1960. With expansion of the aerospace industry in the 1960s, many Arab men who had came to the Seattle area as students found jobs here as engineers. They were later joined by a large number of students who came to study at Seattle-area universities and colleges. Many returned to their home countries. But with the civil war in Jordan and Lebanon, many families immigrated to join their sons. Many Palestinian families who fled the recent Gulf war have settled here. They were followed by Iraqi political refugees and their families.
The "Arab World" includes 22 countries in the Middle East and North Africa, with a population of 180 million.
Superstitious beliefs do not play a major role in treating patients. An individual who becomes sick will turn first to family members, especially elders, for support, comfort and advice. They may recommend safe, simple home remedies, many of which are encouraged by health professionals. Examples are:
Arabs in the Pacific Northwest are primarily first generation immigrants who are still closely tied to beliefs and practices of their home country. Most are well educated and hold jobs in government or industry, or own their own businesses. Most are proud of their heritage but willing to adapt to American culture.
Generally, both male and female Arab patients and their children prefer to be seen by male doctors. For pregnancy or gynecological needs, women prefer a female doctor, however. In Arab culture, women are reluctant to discuss these concerns with men.
Arab culture and Islamic religion emphasize maintaining good health, especially through personal hygiene practices and a healthy diet. The concepts of science and medicine have been established in Arab culture since the 10th century. Arabs place a high value in modern Western medicine and have confidence in the medical profession.
Since midwives play an important role in prenatal care and childbirth in the Arab world, it is highly recommended that pregnant women be seen by midwives. However, increasingly, many prefer to be seen by female doctors.
