Healthcare facilities serving refugee and migrant populations face a documented triple burden of infectious disease, non-communicable disease, and mental health need — yet most systems still lack the adapted practice to identify and address it at first contact. This course equips clinic teams with the concrete skills, structured processes, and evidence-informed frameworks to deliver genuinely equitable, people-centred care regardless of a patient's legal status or displacement history.
