Why is it important?

This is the first time the burden of Syrian refugees healthcare on nurses is assessed. Almost all refugee research is focused on related diseases and their diagnosis and management and access to care, however, rarely on quality of care including the care that is mainly coordinated and provided by nurses. It is not enough to have access and resources, but with the same importance, those providing the care should be given attention to support them in rendering safe quality healthcare services.

Perspectives

This manuscript describes the protocol of the study, something I believe should be shared among researchers so we learn from each other different research methods that could be utilized when planning to explore similar phenomena.
