From Poland to UK (Paramedic or EMT)

[pietreck]

Hi!

I am a fresh graduated student from Poland (University of Warmia and Mazury). I have been studying Ratownictwo Medyczne (3 years course of Paramedics).

It is said that my diploma is also proper for working abroad. How could I start to work in United Kingdom? I think that I should pass some adaptation courses, maybe someone could help me how to start? I would be really grateful for any help

How to start to be EMT / Paramedic ?

See you and thanks for all in advance

You can always look into working here in the Middle East.

Where I am at right now, we are hiring lots of medical staff from the Czech Republic.

Just do a Google search of Middle East paramedic jobs, and go from there.

what do the HCPC say about the acceptability of the courses in PL ?

I know in the late 1990s a lot of work was put into Nursing education in .PL to meet the EU Directive.

Hi mate, you would have to go down the International route with HCPC which shouldn't be too hard plus you have an EU passport so no visa worries, but, do you really want to work in the UK? It rains a lot and they are a tad limited (although small moves are being made to address that) ... I would rather stay on the continent and work in one of the Doctor/Paramedic systems.

Now, can I have some kielbasa stat!?
