#196 LIVE! Refugee Health with Tanuja Devaraj MD

Develop your approach to refugee health in the primary care setting.  We discuss important considerations for primary care of the refugee patient with Dr. Tanuja Devaraj (Penn State), an internist with expertise in migration health.  We review barriers to primary care, how to take a migration history, and common health concerns that occur in this patient population.  We also discuss strategies for screening for trauma and mental health issues, which are common among patients who have gone through migration.
