The Impact

The Hungarian health care system faces new challenges with the unprecedented increased rate of migration. Asylum-seekers arriving are a heterogeneous group. Their health care needs vary depending on their country of origin and the quality of the health care they received prior to arrival, not to mention the impact of the migration process on their health. Described within this paper are the challenges an asylum seeker might face in obtaining care on arrival into the host country and the challenges clinicians face in providing that care. This review is designed to give health professionals the necessary knowledge to care for asylum-seekers in a culturally aware and clinically informed manner. Orv. Hetil., 2016, 157(1), 23–29.

Convenience Sampling

Background: In daily practice, physicians encounter many health risks. Multiple studies have found that physicians are finding it difficult to access health care, and often resort to self-diagnosis and treatment. Methods: Cross-section analytical observational study. A non-random convenience sampling technique using a preexisting self-administered validated questionnaire. Results: Most of the factors represented a low-to-moderate or neutral level of difficulty, although 42% of respondents said that finding the time to access care was a high priority. Career threatening illnesses were not a significant problem (72 of 456 respondents, or 15.8%), but 54.4% of respondents reported that they had a colleague with a career-threatening illness. Conclusion: The results indicate the need for policy makers and employer to make a greater effort to meet physicians' health care needs. One of the main weaknesses of this study was the sample, as it cannot be considered to be representative of physicians working in Saudi Arabia. The majority of respondents were general and family physicians, so the results may not apply to other specialties that were not represented equally in our sample.

Introduction: The internationalization of societies and the processes of globalization raise new challenges towards health provision systems, including professional, ethical, social, cultural and communicational references of nursing and nursing education. Aims: In this study the authors wanted to answer the following question: To what extent are health care professionals aware of and able to respond to the new challenges? Methods: As an investigation method, the authors used a questionnaire and made a comparative analysis of answers related to the knowledge, skills and attitude of BSc nurses and other health professionals who possess a secondary qualification. The questionnaire was compiled based on the internationally accepted and validated Transcultural Self Efficacy Test. With the permission of the authors of the test, some questions were adapted to the national conditions. The responses were evaluated by statistical methods. Results: There were better results in the components of skills and attitude of BSc nurses but there was a very high number of professionals in both groups who either failed to have or could not meet the requirements and phenomena related to intercultural skills. Conclusions: The survey performed among nurses proved that there is a real demand for intercultural skills and knowledge related to expectations of the society. In order to improve the quality of health care, the development of these skills is necessary. Orv. Hetil., 2012, 153, 1711–1718.
