The following pages of this website will provide you with help in your assessment of migrant patients' health needs:

• Country specific pages; include some of the key risks of infection and other health issues that may affect migrants from each country listed.
• Assessing the health needs of new migrant patients; for patients new to your practice and/or to the UK.
• Assessing patients with symptoms (guidelines adapted from the National Travel Health Network and Centre; Health Information for Overseas Travel); for advice on diagnosing symptomatic patients who have recently travelled or arrived from abroad.
