Medicine in Poland
Local hospitals have friendly and qualified staff, modern medical equipment, availability of all necessary medicines and medications, but, unfortunately, queues in private and public clinics are a Polish reality, since there is a noticeable shortage of personnel in the field of medicine, salaries of doctors and staff are not high enough. At the same time, an ambulance arrives no later than 10 minutes after the call.
Medical care is available to everyone who has the appropriate insurance, mandatory for residents and residents of the country.
