As I have mentioned before, the UK needs overseas nurses to fill 20,000 job vacancies in the NHS alone.
We will be exhibiting at the MedPharm Job Fair in Barcelona at the Novotel Diagonal today 13 September, and Madrid tomorrow on Sunday 14 September at the Hotel Convension.
Concept Care's has won a major from a London NHS Trusts desperate to recruit international nurses, Doctors and AHP's (Allied Health Professions) such as Occupational Therapists and Radiographers.
Medical recruitment agencies, such as Concept Care Solutions, and NHS Trusts are currently recruiting in the EU (Spain, Greece, Portugal, Romania and Bulgaria) to find nurses, care workers, OT's, PT's and doctors. EU workers can go anywhere within the EU to work, which means the UK faces stiff competition fro the best medical staff.
However, NHS employers will also need to employ non-EU nurses and staff from countries such as India and the Philippines in order to meet massive staff shortages.
Nurses needed include:
- Theatre
- ICU
- A&E
- Care of the Elderly
Non-EU Nurses must obtain IELTS 7.00, unlike those from European Union or EEA.
Many thousands of Post Study Work Visas (PSW) will be expiring in August and September. If you have a nursing or medical degree and need a Tier 2 working visa, contact me.
If you are a qualified nurse, doctor or OT/AHP in the UK send your CV to info@londonccs.com.
The NMC (Nursing and Midwifery Council) requirements for overseas nurses wishing to work in the UK are changing in October. An online written competence test and assessment held in the UK is being introduced from October 2014 replacing the outdated overseas nursing programme (ONP).
The new 'competence test' system will make it easier for employers, such as the NHS, to recruit non-EU nurses who want to work in the UK and fill the 20,000 plus UK nurse job vacancies.
Non-EU nurses will still need an English language level of IELTS 7.00. EU nurses have no English language requirement!
Visa overstayers should book a consultation with an OISC registered immigration adviser to look at their options for regularising their stay in the UK.
