Working conditions for Nurses in Saudi Arabia: What to Expect
Who are my patients?
Most of your patients will be Saudi Nationals. Our client hospitals are the leading tertiary hospitals, they receive patients from all parts of Saudi Arabia. All also offer medical tourism.
What can you tell me about my colleagues?
One of the highlights of working in Saudi Arabia is the opportunity to connect with people from around the world. Your colleagues will include healthcare professionals and support staff from Saudi Arabia, as well as numerous other countries such as the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, various European nations, Australia, New Zealand, Egypt, Jordan, the Philippines, Somalia, Sudan, South Africa, and more. In fact, there are up to 60 different nationalities represented at our client hospitals.
Do I need to wear a uniform at work?
Yes, most positions require a uniform. The hospital provides the uniform, but you are expected to bring your own shoes. Most staff members wear comfortable athletic shoes. There may be a brief wait before you receive your uniform, so you should be prepared to come to work in appropriate business attire during the first few days.
What if my job doesn't require a uniform?
All non-uniform staff are expected to wear business dress - casual clothing/jeans are not permitted. When shopping for work clothes, remember to consider the culture within Saudi Arabia. Ensure that all of your business clothing is modest. Your recruiter can advise you further if you are unsure.
How will I keep my professional skills up to date? Can I continue my education?
Yes,
it is possible to continue your education in all hospitals. The
hospitals have very strong links with universities in The US, UK and
Australia.
Most overseas nurses set up their courses with Universities
in their home country and do courses online. Online medical libraries
from around the world are available from the hospital.
In addition to this, most wards have an in-service education program; nursing educators are available and offer further education for both trained staff and nursing students.
