Migracje personelu medycznego i jej skutki dla funkcjonowania systemu ochrony zdrowia w Polsce
Migration of the medical professionals

Summary/Abstract: Migration of the healthcare personnel started long before Poland joined the EU. However, with the accession more and more people, especially doctors, decided to migrate. The main reason for migration was of a financial nature. In recent years the dynamics of this migration slowed down among physicians, but it increased among nurses. Though at the moment migration does not pose a serious problem for the healthcare system in Poland it may be one of the factors which will cause problems in the future. Majority of migrants are relatively young. There is a threat that there will be no replacement for nurses who will retire in the nearest future. State involvement / action is required to sustain the system.
