They are prone to various social, psychological and emotional trauma in such situations, emanating from fear of neglect by the local community and concerns about wellbeing and safety of their families waiting in thei...r native places.

Menschen ohne legalen Aufenthaltsstatus gehören in Deutschland zur gesellschaftlichen Realität. Die Zahl der Menschen ohne Papiere hierzulande liegt Schätzungen zufolge noch immer zwischen 200.000 und 600.000. Oft gehen diese „Menschen ohne Papiere“ bei einer Erkrankung erst sehr spät zum Ar...zt; aus Angst, entdeckt und abgeschoben zu werden. Nicht selten endet dies im medizinischen Notfall. Vor diesem Hintergrund hat die Bundesärztekammer in Zusammenarbeit mit der Ärztekammer Berlin und unter Mitwirkung des Büros für medizinische Flüchtlingshilfe Berlin das Faltblatt „Patientinnen und Patienten ohne legalen Aufenthaltsstatus in Krankenhaus und Praxis“ erstellt. Es soll Ärzten für die Behandlung von Menschen ohne legalen Aufenthaltsstatus bezüglich der rechtlichen Situation und bei Fragen der Kostenerstattung eine Orientierungshilfe geben. Das Faltblatt wurde redaktionell überarbeitet und ergänzt. So finden sich in der Neuauflage auch Hinweise zur Regelung der ärztlichen Schweigepflicht gegenüber den Sozialämtern und Ausländerbehörden.
