Key Concepts Healthcare Sample Clauses

Key Concepts Healthcare. The concept of health is a complex issue. Internationally recognised definitions classify health in terms of an ideal (complete physical, mental and social well-being), in more concrete terms (reduction in mortality, morbidity and disability due to detectable disease or disorder, and an increase in the perceived level of health) and in relation to the level of healthcare that is provided (primary, secondary or tertiary healthcare). For certain, all Member States struggle with providing healthcare to its citizens and the costs of public health represent a significant financial burden in all Member States but this does not excuse it from its human rights obligation to provide healthcare to those persons in their territory regardless of their administrative status. Indeed, whatever the approach of the Member State, the same level of healthcare that is afforded to citizens of the Member State should also be guaranteed to a returnee whether partaking in a voluntary or forced return procedure. Furthermore, specific healthcare and medical programmes that reflect the needs of returnee in the context of the return process need to be developed. Such programmes should be based on global approach taking into account socio- economic, educational and cultural issues. Vulnerable Groups Physical and mental problems of returnees can be aggravated by a condition of vulnerability of certain persons. It is important not to limit the definition of a vulnerable group only to a certain number of pre-defined categories but to consider also the wider context of the return process and to assess vulnerability on a case by case basis, against all the elements that form an integral part of the return process, from the state of well-being of the person themselves (social, economic and cultural background) to all the aspects of the return operation itself, including the approach of the returning and the receiving state.
