Interests of nurses and midwives will be represented by new trade unions in the form of Trade Union of Nurses and Midwives. As the president of the Union Viliam Záborský was chosen, who works as a nurse at bedside in National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases in Bratislava. Nurses are currently represented by the Slovak Trade Union of Health and Social Services. According to Záborský, the only solution how nurses can fight for their dignified position in the society and to defend their status is the creation of their own trade union.
