The main aim of the event is to share experience from the integration of foreign nurses in the United Kingdom and to compare the status and competencies of nurses within its healthcare system. Holding the conference within a nationwide nursing event is the result of cooperation established under the project “Permanent Conference of Slovak Healthcare Professionals” with the Slovak Chamber of Nurses and Midwives, which initiated this format to help effectively address the shortage of nurses in Slovakia, including through engagement of the Slovak healthcare diaspora.
The Permanent Conference of Slovak Healthcare Professionals represents a stable link connecting the healthcare community of Slovaks living abroad with Slovakia, with the aim of mutual exchange of information and experience, as well as providing up-to-date information on opportunities for professional practice in Slovakia, on innovations, and on modern workplaces. Cooperation and exchange of experience will take place in the area of practical healthcare delivery in the countries where the Slovak diaspora operates, as well as in education, upskilling, and addressing practical issues of this community. The Slovak diaspora, familiar with the environment of both countries, can purposefully highlight areas with a higher level of development and support their improvement in Slovakia.
