Our Course on (Enduring) Welcoming refugee students: An Introduction to refugee student health for MA school nurses can be found here. The overall goal of this course is to provide school nurses with information about refugee resettlement, including the health screening and immunization process, and to describe resources they can access as they work to provide culturally appropriate health services to meet the varied health needs of these students. You can find our AUDIT (Enduring) Welcoming refugee students: An Introduction to refugee student health for MA school nurses Course here. Note: The Audit version does not offer CNEs. |
