"Make Life Better"
"DataFlow" is a term every aspiring UAE healthcare professional will hear. It stands for the DataFlow Group, the authorized partner for Primary Source Verification (PSV) in the GCC region.
Why is PSV Necessary?
The UAE has strict healthcare standards. PSV ensures that every doctor and nurse working in the country has legitimate qualifications. Instead of just checking your certificates, DataFlow contacts the issuing authority directly (your college, hospital HR, or nursing council) to verify the records.
What Gets Verified?
- Education: Your degree/diploma and transcripts.
- Employment: Experience certificates reflecting your role and tenure.
- Licensure: Your home country professional registration (e.g., Delhi Nursing Council).
- Good Standing: The Good Standing Certificate.
Common Rejection Reasons
- Discrepancy in dates of employment.
- University/Hospital not responding to verification emails.
- Incorrect contact details provided for the issuer.
