Medical examination of refugees differs from routine patient evaluations in significant ways: * They often come from countries with a disease epidemiology different from the U.S. * They should be screened for communicable diseases upon arrival * The prevalence of mental health disorders in refugees is high * Medical and psychiatric conditions of refugees are affected by past trauma and current acculturation difficulties * Significant cultural barriers can arise in the accurate evaluation and treatment of refugees. Physicians receive very little training in refugee health. Refugee Health Care is a practical guide providing concise information for busy practitioners. This concise textbook reviews common conditions seen in refugees and some of the recommendations in the book apply to all immigrants. It will be a valuable resource for primary care physicians, psychiatrists, pediatricians, women?s health providers and any health care practitioner who treats refugees. 606 $aInternal medicine 606 $aPrimary care (Medicine) 606 $aPsychiatry 606 $aInfectious diseases 606 $aPublic health 606 $aInternal Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33002 606 $aPrimary Care Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H51000 606 $aPsychiatry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H53003 606 $aInfectious Diseases$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33096 606 $aPublic Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27002 615 0$aInternal medicine. 615 0$aPrimary care (Medicine). 615 0$aPsychiatry. 615 0$aInfectious diseases. 615 0$aPublic health. 615 14$aInternal Medicine. 615 24$aPrimary Care Medicine. 615 24$aPsychiatry. 615 24$aInfectious Diseases. 615 24$aPublic Health. 676 $a362.1/0880694 676 $a362.10869140973 676 $a610 676 $a613 702 $aAnnamalai$b Aniyizhai$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300073103321 996 $aRefugee Health Care$91522236 997 $aUNINA
