Many refugees and asylum seekers now in the United Kingdom have
trained and worked as doctors nurses midwives and other
professionals allied to medicine in the countries from which they
have departed. However refugees face considerable problems and
difficulties in their quest to continue or resume their careers as
health professionals in the UK. This book has brought together
authors from varying organisations and professional backgrounds who
are dedicated to supporting the integration of refugee doctors into
the National Health Service workforce. It is timely and informative
for all those working with refugee doctors in the NHS and a useful
handbook for refugee doctors themselves. It will help all refugee
doctors use their qualifications and expertise in the UK and
maximise their contribution to the NHS workforce. All members of
workforce development confederations strategic health authorities
NHS trusts and primary care organisations and refugee doctors
wishing to work in the NHS in the UK will find this book invaluable
reading. 'This book gives a very full account of many aspects of a
complex situation. It details the history of refugee doctors and
the range of problems that they face and also shows the
contribution that they can make and the personal courage and
resilience it takes to survive the transition. It outlines
practical steps from improving English to preparation for
examinations they must pass and preparing for job interviews in a
competitive market.' Dame Lesley Southgate President Royal Free and
University College Medical School London and Past President Royal
College of General Practitioners
