The National Health Service of the United Kingdom is the world’s fifth-largest employer, creating more jobs than Amazon, McDonald’s, and China’s People’s Liberation Army combined. With a workforce of almost 1.9 million people, it’s obvious why there’s still a high demand for nursing staff at all grades from India. Overseas nationals are expected to make up about 14% of the workforce.

Moreover, the NHS and UK’s health and social care system are in the midst of an existential staffing crisis. There are over 1,00,000 openings in the service, according to estimates made before the UK exited the EU, effectively ending free movement between the two countries.

As a result, the number of job openings in 2021 and beyond is expected to rise significantly. As a result of the pandemic, the NHS is thought to have hired about 8,000 nurses in the last ten months to fill positions, many in critical care.

As per the media speculation reports, 100 critical care nurses from India joined the Mid and South Essex NHS Trust in February, and another 300 will be joining other trusts and hospitals in the UK soon.

To give you an idea about the type of vacancies and relevant pay we have displayed some current job openings below.

The hospital will assign you a Clinical Educator with whom you will collaborate, from the very first day of your work to train for the OSCE.
