Meeting the health needs of refugee and asylum seekers in the uk - an information and resource pack for health workers
Every day healthworkers provide a wide range of care and support to refugees and asylum seekers. Frequently these people have left their homes in pursuit of safety and a better quality of life. Their
circumstances are difficult and their needs are often highly complex.
We commend this comprehensive and clearly presented Information and Resource Pack. The authors have adopted a style which means the pack can be used as an education resource or as a reference point. Building on the skills and experience of health workers, the pack contains practical information, details of useful contacts
and resources and includes examples of good practice from around the United Kingdom.
The prime aim of this Information and Resource Pack is to support and enhance individualised care for each refugee and asylum seeker. Its success in achieving this aim was expressed by a GP in Birmingham.
