Caring for Kids New to Canada

Caring for Kids New to Canada – An essential website, launched in April 2013, was developed for health professionals who work with immigrant and refugee children, youth and families. The site includes information and resources to enhance patient care and help you better understand the unique health needs of these kids.

Developed by the Canadian Paediatric Society with input from a range of experts and organizations, Caring for Kids New to Canada has evidence-based information on assessing and screening patients, medical conditions, health promotion, child development, and much more. It also explores how issues beyond the clinical setting affect health, such as culture, social and environmental conditions, health care systems, and public policy.
