本文回顾了移民拘留和其他限制性移民政策对儿童，年轻人和照顾他们的成年人的心理健康的影响的证据。我们回顾这对临床医生试图评估或与被监禁的儿童和成人难民和寻求庇护者的影响。最近的调查结果有越来越多的成年人和儿童在地球仪寻求庇护，许多国家使用监禁和其他严厉和拦截移民的做法。越来越多的证据表明，拘留已经脆弱的成年人和儿童会造成心理伤害。澳大利亚被用作案例研究。临床医生必须考虑心理健康评估和治疗与侵犯人权行为的交叉点，以及限制性移民政策的影响，不仅对寻求庇护者和难民，而且对临床医生，临床实践和职业道德。
Purpose of review This article reviews evidence about the impact of immigration detention and other restrictive immigration policies on the mental health of children, young people and the adults who care for them. We review the implications of this for clinicians attempting to assess or work with incarcerated child and adult refugees and asylum seekers. Recent findings There are increasing numbers of adults and children seeking asylum across the globe and many nations use incarceration and other harsh and interceptive immigration practices. There is mounting evidence of the psychological harm associated with detention of already vulnerable adults and children. Australia is used as a case study. Summary Clinicians are required to consider the intersection of mental health assessment and treatment with human rights violations, and the impact of restrictive immigration policies, not only on asylum seekers and refugees but also on clinicians, clinical practice and professional ethics.
