Our Story
The British Government through the MAC (Migration Advisory Committee) has finally recognised the serious situation that exists in the UK in relation to the shortage of nurses and has re-instated general nurses on to the SOL (Skills Occupation List) the first time this has happened since 2008, on a temporary basis whilst establishing the long term requirements of nursing needs. For a number of years there have been nurses on the SOL, but in specialist areas such as neo-natal infant and child care, but this departure from specific nursing skills to that of considering all nursing capabilities provides the opportunity for non-EU nurses to apply to come to the UK for a minimum of 3 years under the SOL conditions. The requirements that international nurses have to meet today calls for an entity not just to find nurses, but also to provide the knowledge and support to nurses to enable them to make the transition from a qualified competent nurse in their own country to facing the challenges and skill set needed to become a successful nurse in the United Kingdom. Key areas of qualifications, work experience and a strong command of the English language are a necessity, very different from what was required back in 2008 including the salaries, however the opportunities now being offered for overseas nurses to expand their nursing knowledge whilst at the same time earning a significantly better rate of pay recognising the real value of overseas nurses, is a reality that was just not available eight years ago. The minimum salary for an unregistered nurse is £16,271 per year once registered £21,478 per year. However in addition an unregistered or registered nurse is allowed to work a further 20, hours per week for an alternative employer within the Health Care Industry. This could see nurses doubling their basic income in a year as nursing agencies are likely to pay between £10 and £20 per hour, £200 to £400 per week. This would be on top of your normal wages paid by your full time employer.
