The UEMS and 7 other European medical organisations i.e
the European Association of Senior Hospital Physicians (AEMH), 
the European Council of Medical Orders (CEOM), 
the Standing Committee of European Doctors (CPME), 
European Junior Doctors (EJD), 
European Medical Students Association (EMSA), 
the European Federation of Salaried Doctors (FEMS), and 
the European Union of General Practitioners/ Family Physicians (UEMO), 

support their Croatian colleagues in their action toward the Croatian government to ensure sustainable education and training conditions, adequate remuneration, and lawful working conditions as well as safe staffing levels.

The Croatian doctors have shared worrying reports about the state of financing and organisation of the health system which has created unsustainable conditions for doctors to provide patient care. We hereby express our support for our Croatian colleagues in their calls for lawful and decent working conditions.
