Abstract
The immigration policies adopted by European states are required to recognise migration processes as a structural phenomenon and, in the health sphere, to implement inclusive interventions capable of promoting integration and well-being for all people living in and/or transiting through Europe. At the national level, despite the forward-thinking measures put in place by the legislator and the establishment of the National Health Service, access to the right to health still seems far from fully inclusive for the more vulnerable segments of the population, particularly people from foreign countries. This article intends to propose an innovative model for ethics of care aimed at the implementation and optimisation of healthcare practices towards migrants living in our country, whether temporarily or more permanently.
