Without residency Oscar is correct, it's very difficult.

The other question is do you also speak Spanish? If not then even with a cedula it won't be easy.聽

Last point - you understand that this is a low paid position?聽 Maybe pays 300 to 400 US a month!
Hi there, I work in medical tourism here. If you aren't fully bilingual it would be impossible to work within the field.

Feel free to message me.
Thanks for the info鈥擨 want to live in the DR, but I am fluent in Spanish & retired. I was asking for my daughter who is an MA in the US (low paid here too & high cost of living). I thought maybe she could come live with me & work鈥攂ut she鈥檚 forgotten all her spanish
She would pick it up quickly I bet!
As others have said, she would need to speak fluent Spanish, have residency (maybe as your dependent?), and accept that she'd make maybe a quarter of what she could earn in the US. If she's living with you and doesn't have housing expenses, that income might work.
@Ykr716 hey I'm fully bilingual but I don鈥檛 know where to go for a medical assistant job and I don鈥檛 know what鈥檚 the right Pay. Can u help me with that?聽 Jalbu3z on IG THANKS
Welcome to the forums.聽 Do you have residency?聽 If not it's impossible to get work legally

If you do, then head to hospitals clinics and individual doctors offices.
@Ykr716 hi. Where do you work?. I am a 3rd year medical student and I wanted a medical related job in LA romana or any place with tourism in the area. Am also full trilingual
@eve the other poster is in Santo Domingo area.

Do you wish to stay in La Romana area?

@Ykr716 hello I'm very interested in working in the field of medical tourism recovery house, I speak a little Spanish still improving by the day, most of all I'm fluent in English. Looking forward hearing back from you at your earliest convenience. Thank you

@rajasmin4 You really need to be fluent in Spanish to work in the medical field here in DR, and more importantly, you must have a cedula or work visa to legally work here.

Recovery houses do not need聽 spanish so much as good english BUT you will need a work visa or a cedula to work legally. AND聽 the highest paid nurse in this field that I know of personally does not earn聽 US 600 a month. They work聽 60 hour weeks!

They will only value their English if they are also fluent in Spanish.聽 Most doctors and other support staff do NOT speak English.聽

@Ykr716

Hello i been in the medical field in the United States for 18 years looking to relocate to Santo domingo I am fluent in English and Spanish is it hard to find work there?

First you will need residency, a work visa or are a Dominican citizen.

聽 2nd these jobs are badly paid in general and less badly paid in the plastic surgery industry where bilingual is a huge value.
