Health Minister wants to simplify rules on employing Ukrainian health professionals

After meeting with EU Commissioner for Health and Food Safety Stella Kyriakides, Czech Health Minister Vlastimil Válek has announced that he will propose a simplification to the country’s rules on employing Ukrainian health professionals at next week’s meeting of the government. According to the plan, the health professionals in question will only be assigned to taking care of Ukrainian refugees.

Recognising foreign qualifications is organised on the level of the whole European Union. Ms Kyriakides said that the European Commission is working on a solution to recognising the qualifications which would be valid for all member states.
