[Health and wellbeing of older migrants in the Netherlands: A narrative literature review].

In the past few years there has been a growing attention for older migrants, but the question of what we actually know about this group of people remains open. This article strives to fill this knowledge lacuna by presenting an overview of current research findings on health and wellbeing. In total 104 publications were taken into account in this literature review, including 69 articles published in (inter)national journals and 35 reports. The results show that a great deal of research is dedicated to the three largest groups of non-western migrants - Surinamese, Turkish and Moroccan older adults - and health-related themes such as health status and healthcare utilization and quality. Interest in the field of wellbeing is, on the other hand, still rather small. Furthermore, there seems to be little attention to diversity on the current research agenda, although prior research has shown relatively large differences between migrant groups. Based on this literature review, we conclude with a plea for more explanatory research, which goes beyond country of origin and socio-economic status.
