• Only allow verified e-mails such as @nhs.net, @ac.uk to register so you can be sure of who is posting

• Provide updated resources about good/emerging practice in the field of work
• Offer a respectful and enabling environment for people engaged in forum discussion.

migrant.health will not:

• Tolerate abusive or disrespectful posts on the forum; this means that sometimes users may be temporarily or permanently suspended. Please email any concerns to safesurgeries@doctorsoftheworld.org.uk

You, as a member of the migrant.health community will:

• treat others as you want to be treated, with respect and consideration

• share your good practice, if you think it will benefit the community.

You, as a member of the migrant.health community will not:
