“…Internationally, the nursing profession has a responsibility to understand military culture and lifestyle. “A person's culture and life experiences shape his or her world view about health, illness, and health care” (p 3) 23 . To provide quality health care to a population such as the military and their families, an understanding of the impact of transitioning to a military assignment abroad is needed.…”

Moving to a new country and culture has emotional, social, financial, health, and cultural consequences. Military spouses face a wide range of stressors when relocating or sojourning, placing them at risk for a variety of health challenges. The aim of this study was to describe the transition experiences of military spouses who sojourn abroad as part of a service member's assignment. Using qualitative narrative inquiry, semi‐structured interviews of 13 US military spouses living in Italy were conducted. Narrative thematic and structural analysis was used to analyze the data. Six themes represent the transition experience: adding stress to an already stressful situation, managing a new set of worries and fears surrounded by the unknown, reestablishing an everyday life from chaos, battling social, personal, and physical isolation, reinventing myself to move beyond simply functioning to control, and pondering about life, returning, and repatriation. Internationally, the nursing profession has a responsibility to understand the transition experience of military spouses to overseas assignments so appropriate strategies aimed at strengthening resiliency, building cultural flexibility, and maintaining health and well‐being can be provided, while minimizing negative consequences. Additionally, nurses and health care providers can play a role by continually developing culturally congruent and sensitive practice.

“…Yet the finding that 8 of the respondents reported they had experienced violence in health facilities should be taken seriously. Individuals may also have different criteria and different desires for health and healthcare (Clarke, 2017) and that may also be an issue to consider.…”

“…The chief aim of intercultural healthcare is to ensure culturally harmonious care that meets the individual's lifestyle, values and value system. Recognition, respect and adaptation to the cultural needs of patients, families and communities are key elements of healthcare (Clarke, 2017) which seeks to prevent health inequalities. Cultural competence needs to be part of the overall skills, knowledge and attitudes of health professionals and they must be adequately trained if they are to provide appropriate care to a wide range of patients (Durieux-Paillard, 2011).…”

Several topical issues arising from the contemporary migrant context, at both regional and global levels, are addressed in the chapter. First, when it comes to the sphere of the European Union, the emphasis is on the issues of integration in the migrant context, as well as the security situation. Women have often been heavily involved in the survival of their families and communities, but today the 'feminisation of migration' and 'feminisation of survival' processes are very evident. These two phrases highlight the increasingly public and visible forms of women's contribution to families, along with their contribution to the state and society (immigrant and emigrant), especially the growing world demand for their services. Although women have always migrated, developments in the last decades sustain both their presence in international migration flows and their recognition as migrants. The focus of this contribution on presenting certain results of ongoing research, chiefly on the social integration of migrants in Slovenia.
