Abstract
Migrating between countries necessitates movement and adjustment between systems of healthcare which differ in provision. Children of migrant parents use most types of healthcare services less than local children, with only emergency and hospital services used more (Markkula et al 2018).In the UK National Health Service (NHS) nurses provide primary care services and health promotion to children.
