Support for foreign medical professionals in the Czech republic
Starting a career in a new country — especially in healthcare — can be challenging. Language barriers, an unfamiliar system, new rules. That’s why we’ve created a set of clear and practical resources to help you settle into the Czech healthcare and social support system more easily.
In this section, you’ll find useful tools such as medical terminology glossaries, Czech language textbooks with a focus on medical vocabulary, educational videos, and webinars covering common real-life situations from daily practice. You’ll also find links to additional resources that may be helpful in both your professional work and everyday life in the Czech Republic.
Our aim is to make your transition into a new work environment as smooth and confident as possible.
