Culturally responsive refugee and migrant health.

As the number of forcibly displaced vulnerable populations accelerates worldwide, it is increasingly important that health care systems and professionals be prepared to offer comprehensive, culturally, and linguistically appropriate services to migrant and refugee populations. Understanding the unique needs and lived experiences of these populations, including their risks to health and wellbeing as well as opportunities to promote resilience, is necessary to support these populations’ diverse needs. Integrated primary care teams are uniquely poised to support these populations by reducing barriers to health and promoting equitable and holistic care.
