More than 230 Ukrainian nationals with health-care backgrounds are in the process of getting approved to join Nova Scotia's health-care system, which has been dealing with severe staffing shortages for years.

The Nova Scotia government says it’s working with Public Health and regulatory colleges to streamline licensing and support for Ukrainian health-care professionals.

Nova Scotia Health has hired three community navigators, and will soon hire more, to serve as liaisons between the Ukrainian community and health-care system, answering questions, helping with translation, and supporting candidates throughout their journey to employment. The college has implemented a new pathway that will help more physicians receive their licence in less time, with less administrative burden and with a shorter but more robust period of assessment and supervision.

Nova Scotia Health is launching a pilot program in partnership with the college to provide internationally educated nurses with a streamlined process to access registered nurse bridging education programs. The province says not all applicants will meet the qualifications to get licensed to work in their chosen field of their scope of practice. In such cases, Nova Scotia Health will explore alternative roles that will allow people to work while they work towards getting licensed.

234 Ukrainians refused to fight for their own country

So our tax dollars paid BILLIONS to help out Ukrainians and then they fill the jobs of terminated HCW's who were fired after refusing a vaccine? Why not just rehire those unvaccinated staff? This is an ultimate F.U to Canadians

Check for tattoos, and make sure they have been vaccinated at least 5 times. And unlike Ukrainians back home, they have the right to bargain fairly.

There are already many in Canada jobless, struggling to get a job, and these liberals are adding to existing woes by giving them preferential treatment. Pathetic. If you are really sympathetic, give them your money and not someone’s else bread.

Need to replace the unvaxxed ones that were fired with unvaxxed immigrants.

Bring more over here too!

Ukrainian health workers seek work approvalThere are more than 200 Ukrainians with health-care backgrounds in the process of getting approved to practise in N.S. How many fired unvaccinated nurses available ? Seems like training and education doesn’t matter anymore. How about recognizing health care workers trained in other countries? Plenty of doctors and nurses from other countries driving taxis now here too...😏

Opinion: When it comes to Canada’s health care system, it’s time to start shattering some sacred cowsCanada’s health care system isn’t working right now, and the status-quo aversion to even talking about privatization does us no favours Give the G&M credit, at least they're honest about pushing for a US style health care system 👍 Sacred Cows, as in over inflated salaries of far too much senior admin and CEOs in hospitals and health networks across this country! No. Don't cheerlead privitization. It steals tax dollars for a middleman. Just don't.

More than 150 job postings for nursing positions in SudburyThe shortage of professional health care workers across Ontario has hit home in Sudbury, with the call for licensed nurses to apply at Health Sciences North and Public Health Sudbury and Districts In order to retain the high number of nurses that are leaving, their pay needs to be raised and their student loans should be forgiven. That would be a great place to start.
