Health insurance for AuPairs in the UK

[Nightynight]

How does it work?
If they are European citizens, are they automatically eligible for NHS care or do you have to buy a private policy?
OK, E111 covers for emergency care, what about non-emergency stuff?

If they are non-European citizens, what do you do?

what do you do when your aupairs fall sick???

I registered our aupair with our GP I just had to fill out a form, can't remember what form it was but ask your surgery. Not sure about non eu - I'd assume they would need insurance, I didn't look into non eu girls because it seemed like too much hassle with permits etc..

thank you baublerock. Sounds as though they get it on residence grounds, then. I am not sure if our current prospective AuPair is German or Turkish, and some time will be spent in UK.

My nanny is Canadian. She does not need any special insurance, just registered with the GP when she got here.
