COCP: Deportation: What Comes Next? Webinar (9/12/18)

Question Title

* 1. A young mother, originally from El Salvador, crosses the U.S. - Mexico border with her child. She is seeking permission to stay in the United States legally, because she is afraid of being attacked by her husband who drinks excessively and has recently been forced to join a gang. She has not completed any immigration paperwork prior to arrival.

The best term for a person who crosses an international border looking for sanctuary is:

A. asylum seeker

B. refugee

C. internally displaced person (IDP)

D. immigrant

E. alien

Question Title

* 2. Karla, a healthy 15-year-old girl with parents from Mexico who are “undocumented” (do not have the proper official documentation to legally reside in the U.S.), has been your patient for the past eight years. She presents today for a sports physical. During routine adolescent “HEADDS” screening (assessment of home, education, activities, drinking, drugs, sex/sexuality) she is noted to have developed irritability, difficulty sleeping, and dropping grades. When you interview her alone, she confides she is frightened her parents will be deported when she goes to school.

What is the most appropriate next step to support Karla?

A. Advise her that the U.S. Department of Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) can’t deport her parents, because it is against the law to separate parents from their U.S. citizen children.

B. Advise Karla’s parents to grant her power of attorney over her younger siblings in case her parents are deported.

C. Karla doesn’t need to worry about being deported, since she was brought to the U.S. as a child.

D. Refer her to a counselor for symptoms of depression.

E. Reassure her and advise her to return in one year for her physical, since she is healthy.

Question Title

* 3. Ana lives in a mixed-status family, a family with varied immigration statuses. There are estimated to be 5.1 million children living in mixed-status families in the United States. Your practice serves many children in such families.

What documents should you advise her family to keep in a safe, accessible place in preparation for possible deportation? (select all that apply)

A. school transcripts

B. vaccine records

C. passports

D. property titles

Question Title

* 4. Maria’s mother was deported at her routine check-in with immigration services this month. The family is planning to move to Mexico before the next school year. Maria’s father brings her to clinic today to get a copy of her physical and see if she needs any vaccines. Your pediatric practice has a plan to help families who face challenges related to deportation.

What advice would you give Maria’s father?

A. No additional paperwork is needed. The family will automatically qualify for assistance when they arrive in Mexico.

B. Advise the family to seek the advice of an immigration attorney.

C. The local Mexican consulate can’t assist them since Maria is an American citizen.

D. They should stay in the U.S.

E. No additional vaccines are necessary in clinic today; since the family is leaving this year she can get vaccines at no cost in Mexico when they arrive there.

Question Title

* 5. You are the faculty advisor for a resident, who was born to immigrant parents. He speaks, reads, and writes fluent Spanish. He wants to volunteer time in Mexico helping immigrants who have been deported.

What advice would you give?

A. There are no reliable organizations working in Mexico with deportees. He should plan to do volunteer work in the U.S. instead.

B. Caminamos Juntos doesn’t accept volunteers from outside of Mexico.

C. Casa Del Migrante is a governmental organization that assists with access to government benefits.

D. There are many organizations working with deportees in Mexico. Joining the AAP Immigrant Health Special Interest Group is a good way to access mentors working in this area.

E. There is no need to review CDC website for travel, since the vaccination requirements are all the same for the U.S. and Mexico.
