International Family Nursing Association: toolkit of resources for caring for refugee/migrating families.

Objective: To report the experience of the International Family Nursing Association (IFNA) Practice Committee on developing a Toolkit of resources to care for refugee/migrating families as a response to the global migration and refugee crisis.

Method: Qualitative and descriptive study, experience report, which describes the development of a toolkit of resources for caring for refugee/migrating families.

Results: The development of this Toolkit of resources to care for refugee/migrating families is supported by current literature related to family-centered evaluation and intervention, culturally sensitive practice based on family strengths; statements of positioning on immigrant and refugee families; and nursing and health organizations that addressed the health of the refugee family.

Conclusions: The dissemination of the resources available in the Toolkit can support nursing practices, drive qualified approaches to assessments and interventions, capable of promoting family resilience as they adapt, providing well-being, and leading to the healing of traumas and adversities experienced by families in the process of migration or refuge.
