Migrants et soignants : une reconnaissance réciproque pour une mise en action efficace

Whatever their discipline or place of practice, caregivers inevitably encounter migrants, foreign nationals who are ill and often in real physical and psychological distress. It is important that all caregivers are aware of the international and national legal rights protecting migrants, social security cover, state medical assistance and supplementary universal health insurance. The support needs to be multi-disciplinary, encouraging maximum collaboration between Government organisations, refugee charities, ONGs involved in the reception of migrants, volunteers and interpreters and, of course, caregivers.
