Person-centred, community-oriented, and diversity sensitive primary care for migrants; a EFPC position paper.
Review in Primary health care research & development, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimThis paper aims to describe what constitutes good-quality, accessible, affordable and acceptable primary care for migrants. This includes identifying system adaptations and offering evidence- and practice-based recommendations and guidance for primary care organizations and professionals on how to deliver such care.
backgroundMigration has significantly diversified European populations. Migrants often face structural, linguistic, cultural, and systemic barriers in accessing appropriate primary care. While these challenges are well-documented, implementation of effective, inclusive care remains inconsistent across countries.
methodsThis position paper presents a narrative synthesis of existing literature, expert opinions, and recent policy developments. It draws on evidence from healthcare research, policy analyses, and recommendations developed by the
findingsHigh-quality primary care for migrants requires coordinated action across care delivery, capacity building, and system-level structures. Care delivery must be person-centred and comprehensive, supported by interprofessional collaboration and professional interpretation. Capacity building depends on training and education that embed diversity-sensitive care, cultural humility, and structural competency. At the system level, policies should guarantee equitable access, continuity of care, and inclusive quality monitoring, while fostering intersectoral partnerships and community engagement.
conclusionEmbedding person-centred, diversity-sensitive, and community-oriented principles into primary care systems is essential for achieving equitable healthcare for migrant populations. This is an urgent plea to healthcare policymakers, organizations, and professionals to undertake action to realise these reforms as they not only improve care for migrants but contribute to stronger, sustainable and more resilient health systems overall.
