Abstract EN
Refugee families face a complex transition due to the nature of involuntary migration and the process of acculturation.
There are several risk factors to the family adaptation process during the transition period, which are sociocontextually environmental dependant.
Facilitating a healthy transition for refugee families, therefore, requires the role of nursing to incorporate sociopolitics into the discipline.
This paper introduces a sociopolitically oriented and community-driven assessment and intervention model which is based on a family systematic approach.
Interventions that aid the families in their acculturation process as well as empowers them to a well-functioning daily life, as per the SARFI model, should be adopted.
As such, the future of nursing may provide additional primary health care services for refugee families; this is through a team-led “family nurse” who provides quality care for the family unit in collaboration with other health care professionals and societal authorities.
