Communication in Migrant Health

Communication in Migrant Health is a comprehensive guide that addresses the communication barriers migrants face in accessing and utilising healthcare services. The book offers practical solutions for healthcare professionals on cultural sensitivity, language barriers, and developing appropriate approaches to the health needs of migrants, and focuses on the cultural and social dynamics of migrant communities and emphasises the sensitive points that healthcare professionals serving these groups should pay attention to. And also this book is a valuable resource for non-governmental organisation workers and all professionals working with migrants, and emphasises the importance of providing a healthcare service based on empathy and understanding, and aims to guide those working in this field.

People from different cultures need to overcome communication barriers in order to live together and cope with differences. It can be said that the most important tool for providing accessible and effective healthcare services to people is effective communication centred on cultural variables. In this context, it is an undeniable fact that the communication strategies used directly affect the quality and outcomes of healthcare services provided to migrants. Effective communication in migrant health not only improves the health status of individuals, but also strengthens community health. In this book, the difficulties experienced in communication and strategies to overcome these difficulties are supported by concrete examples.
