Delivering primary healthcare to refugees in New Zealand: A critical interpretive synthesis

Abstract

Providing responsive primary health care (PHC) to refugees is a pressing issue in New Zealand (NZ) and internationally. Evidence on best practice PHC for refugees is limited. We reviewed NZ refugee health literature/policies using a critical interpretive synthesis approach, examining refugees' integration, resettlement, access to and engagement with PHC.
