This report details a two year project that aimed to document, develop and trial an approach to engaging and supporting general practices in the delivery of accessible and appropriate health care to people from refugee backgrounds, including those seeking asylum. A suite of resources to assist in the engagement of general practices in refugee health were co-created and trialled and the report documents this process and the key findings. Key findings relate to:
- the co-creation approach as a strengths based approach to working with general practice
- the relationships between general practice staff and refugee health general practice facilitators
- flexibility, time and resources required to engage general practice in refugee health
- engaging the whole of practice team
- recognising and supporting the role of refugee health general practice facilitators
- balancing stakeholder views
