Facing the shortage of professionals in certain areas, recruiting physiotherapists from the European Union has become a strategic solution for many healthcare facilities in France. However, this process involves several regulatory, logistical, and human steps. In this guide, we detail all the steps to effectively recruit a European physiotherapist in 2026.
1. Identify the needs and desired profile
Before any action, clearly define the position to be filled: sector of activity, tasks, working conditions, required language level, geographic area. Check out our information on physiotherapists in France or access our job offers to understand the most sought-after profiles.
2. Verify the diploma's compatibility
European physiotherapists must have their diploma recognized by French authorities (Ministry of Health or DREETS). You can learn more in our personalized support guide designed to simplify all installation procedures.
3. Support administrative procedures
The physiotherapist will then need to register with the Order, prove a B2 level in French, and provide all required documents. To learn more, check out our guide on registering with the Order and our FAQ section to answer frequent questions.
