Background Grenada is a small, resource‐limited Caribbean country with a high incidence of sickle cell disease (SCD). Since little is known about the challenges facing individuals living with SCD in the West Indies, we sought to assess barriers to healthcare and the impact of SCD on quality of life in Grenada. Methods Both adults aged 18+ (n = 19) and caregivers of children aged 2–17 (n = 26) completed validated survey measures regarding barriers to care and quality of life, along with a genetics knowledge questionnaire. Caregivers also completed a caregiver burden scale. Survey scores were calculated, and responses were analyzed for an association between demographic variables. Results The Barriers to Care Questionnaire, in which lower scores indicate more barriers, revealed that both adults (mean = 69.9) and children (mean = 75.5) with SCD experienced reduced access to care. The Adult Sickle Cell Quality of Life Measurement Information System indicated increased depression and loneliness in adults, with the lowest scores in the Emotional subscale. However, the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory answered by caregivers of children with SCD showed the lowest scores in the Physical Functioning subscale. Further analysis using the Caregiver Burden Scale‐Zarit Burden Interview revealed that 53.8% of caregivers of children with SCD indicated “little to no burden,” which may reflect a difference in cultural expectations of a caregiver between high‐income countries and Grenada. Finally, ~80% of respondents knew that SCD was a genetic condition; however, 61%–84% could not correctly indicate recurrence risks, demonstrating a need for additional education. Conclusion These data provide new insights regarding the experience of living with SCD in Grenada and support the need for further investigations into specific barriers to healthcare delivery, which could also improve education and well‐being for those affected by SCD in Grenada and in the broader Caribbean community. Grenada is a small, resource‐limited Caribbean country with a high incidence of sickle cell disease (SCD). Despite the prevalence, little is known about the challenges facing individuals living with SCD. In this study, caregivers of children with SCD and adults with SCD reported a variety of barriers to care and reduced quality of life that highlight the need for improvements to infrastructure, including education, facilities, and personnel, to facilitate earlier diagnosis and improved lifelong therapeutic management for individuals with SCD.
