F 15 Exploring Resilience Among Asian Immigrants Toward Improving Global Healthcare

Friday, 26 July 2019: 1:15 PM-2:30 PM
Summary
Current scientific literature does not provide evidence on comprehensive exploration of resilience among Asian immigrants (AIs). This symposium offers various perspectives on resilience among AIs influenced by their culture when faced with adversity. Particularly, the cohesive presentations emphasize AIs who are often underserved (women, older adults, immigrants with chronic pain).
