Access to comprehensive health and social care is important for all people, including migrants. However, inequities currently exist that prevent migrants from receiving the care they need. During a conference on health promoting hospitals and services, one speaker addressed these inequities and advocated for policies and practices that provide migrants with the health and social support to which they are entitled.
