Healthcare Professionals Wanted - Immigrate to Canada (Direct Permanent Residency Pathway)
 
Location: South Africa (Immigration Opportunity to Canada)
Recruiter: Medipath Healthcare Recruitment
 
Are you a South African healthcare professional dreaming of a new life in Canada?
Canada has opened a special immigration pathway for healthcare workers through Express Entry - Category-Based Selection, offering direct Permanent Residency (PR) for qualifying applicants.
 
Many South Africans are unaware that this route exists - and that you do NOT need a job offer to qualify. If you meet the criteria and your occupation is on the approved healthcare list, you could be selected for PR directly by the Canadian Government.
 
This is an excellent opportunity for healthcare practitioners seeking:

• A safer, more stable future
• World-class healthcare environments
• Highly competitive salaries
• PR status for your entire family
• Fast-tracked immigration under a priority category
