Description

In response to the lack of access and continuity of care for refugees, a community nursing intervention has been implemented since 2019, following joint reflection between users, caregivers, clinicians, decision-makers, and researchers. This intervention is based on advanced nursing practice and an existing intersectoral network in Sherbrooke, Canada.

The aim of this project was to improve the accessibility and continuity of care and health services for vulnerable populations, in a perspective of integrated care. The aim was to offer both a population-based and specific intervention for refugees and asylum seekers.
