Summary/Abstract: The migration of middle and senior medical staff, which includes nurses and technicians, is an important topic because we are thinking about the sustainability and stability of the health system. Motivational factors of job satisfaction, working environment and living standards, if they result in dissatisfaction as a consequence of not meeting them, are key factors in making migration decisions. This work aims to confirm the factors of migration of nurses and technicians through a survey questionnaire. The interviewees cited personal challenges as the main reasons for outward migration since they could not realize their ambitions in their working environment at the time, while the main motive for return migration was family and emotional ties. Scientific contribution: Point out the fact that the respondents had the support of their work and family environment when they decided to migrate, while at the time when they were working abroad and made the decision to return to their homeland, their superiors started negotiations regarding their stay.
