Abstract
In this guide you will find information about common and frequent diseases in the general population, and particularly among migrants, as well as endemic diseases in our region. Additionally, you will find relevant information about vaccination, family planning, and mental health. This manual is part of the actions developed in the project “Promoting the Health of Immigrants: A Holistic Approach”, coordinated by Prof. Dr. Paula Fernández, and it was realized with the support of the International Relations Office (PROINT) of the Federal University for Latin American Integration (UNILA), the Affirmative Action and Equity Office (SECAFE/UNILA), the Ministry of Human Rights and Citizenship, the Sérgio Vieira de Mello Chair (CSVM-UNILA), and the Association of Young Haitians in Health Sciences (AJHASS). It is designed to help you prevent diseases or seek professional assistance quickly if you or someone close to you experiences symptoms. The city of Foz do Iguaçu provides comprehensive healthcare services, with professionals equipped to deliver quality care through the Unified Health System (SUS for its Portuguese acronym) in both primary and emergency care units (See Guide on the Unified Health System for Migrants, Refugees, and Stateless Persons in Foz do Iguaçu).
