About Health and Care Worker Visa
The Health and Care Worker Visa is a dedicated route for qualified medical professionals and eligible care workers coming to the UK to work for the NHS, an NHS supplier or an approved adult social care employer. It offers a streamlined application process and reduced fees compared to the standard Skilled Worker route. Eligibility depends on having a suitable job offer, sponsorship and recognised qualifications. RakLAW supports doctors, nurses, allied health professionals and care workers, along with their families, through every step of the application and any future extensions or settlement.
