Can I work as a nurse in Dubai with a pre-existing lung condition?

Hi,

I have a pre-existing condition; a lung nodule.

Can I still work in Dubai, or can a company provide me with a visa if I want to work as a nurse?

Thank you!

Hello,

Your ability to obtain a work visa will depend on the results of the medical fitness test.

To obtain a work visa in the UAE, you will undergo a medical fitness test, which typically includes blood tests, a chest X-ray, and sometimes other tests depending on the job.

Your visa will be issued based on the results of these tests.

Under UAE law, work visas may be affected by certain health conditions, such as chronic illnesses or conditions that could impact your ability to work.
