In recent years, more and more Ukrainian healthcare professionals, in particular nurses, have been considering employment in Poland. This is due to better working conditions, higher salaries and opportunities for professional development. However, the process of obtaining a work permit in Poland can be complicated and requires careful preparation and knowledge of the law.

Question

Do Ukrainian nurses need to speak Polish to work in Poland?

Answer

Yes, Polish language proficiency is a mandatory requirement for Ukrainian nurses who plan to work in Poland. Usually, proof of Polish language proficiency at the B2 level according to the European Framework of Reference for Languages is required. This is necessary not only for effective communication with patients and colleagues, but also for understanding medical documentation and instructions. In addition, language proficiency is one of the conditions for the recognition of professional qualifications in Poland. Nurses must pass a special language exam that tests their skills in a professional context. Without a sufficient level of Polish language proficiency, it will be impossible to obtain a work permit and employment in the medical field in Poland.

Submitting an application for a work permit

After finding a potential employer and preparing all the necessary documents, the next step is to apply for a work permit. This process requires attention to detail and compliance with all formalities.

The application process:

  1. Filling in the relevant forms
  2. Submission of documents to the voivodeship office

  5. Obtaining a work permit

At this stage, a legal analysis of a situation can be useful to help you fill out all the forms and prepare the necessary documents. In addition, the service of document analysis can ensure that all documentation meets the requirements of Polish law.

Visa and residence permit

In parallel with the process of obtaining a work permit, Ukrainian nurses need to take care of obtaining an appropriate visa or residence permit in Poland. This is an important aspect of legal stay and work in the country.

Types of residence permits:

  • National visa (type D)
  • Temporary residence and work permit
  • Permanent residence permit (after a certain period of legal residence in Poland)
  • Residence card (residence permit)

In order to choose the best option and properly prepare the documents, it is recommended to apply for a legal opinion of a lawyer specializing in immigration law. A lawyer's consultation service may also be useful for understanding your rights and obligations during your stay in Poland.

Adaptation and integration

After obtaining all the necessary documents and arriving in Poland, an important step is to adapt and integrate into the new professional environment. This will help you to settle into your new workplace faster and become a valuable member of the medical team.

Aspects of adaptation:

Familiarization with local medical protocols and standards

Learning the specifics of the Polish healthcare system

Establishing communication with colleagues and patients

Key aspects:

  1. Labor rights and social guarantees
  2. Professional responsibility
  3. Confidentiality and protection of patient data
  4. Opportunities for professional development and career growth
  5. Participation in professional associations
  6. Compliance with ethical norms and standards of medical practice

For a detailed explanation of rights and obligations, it is recommended to apply for a legal analysis of a situation to a lawyer specializing in medical law. The service of a lawyer in Warsaw can be especially useful for those who plan to work in the capital of Poland.

Extension and renewal of the permit

It is important to remember that a work permit is issued for a certain period of time and requires timely extension or renewal. This is necessary to ensure the continuity of your legal work in Poland.

The process of renewing a work permit:

  • Checking the validity of the current permit
  • Gathering the necessary documents for the extension
  • Submitting an application for extension to the relevant authorities
  • Waiting for the decision and obtaining a new permit
  • Updating other related documents (e.g., the map)

The online lawyer service can also be useful for solving any legal issues related to your stay and work in Poland.
