The Refugee Primer will provide clinicians with practical skills to address the unique needs of newly arrived refugees to Canada. This one-day conference will allow clinicians to identify common and serious health challenges that confront their refugee patients and describe an approach to management of these conditions. It will also help clinicians identify resources to address the existing resource gaps that arise in the care of refugee populations. The Primer will provide opportunities to health care providers to participate in and join existing networks of refugee serving clinicians.
We believe that the sharing of this knowledge will address systemic and structural health inequities faced by refugees. Embrace a community-serving mindset in the curriculum that pays special attention to health equity in considering population health outcomes and social &structural determinants of health, including training in patient and system advocacy."
