The new British Prime Minister, Theresa May wants to reduce
net migration, but nurses are desperately needed by UK employers, especially in
the private nursing home sector, which cannot recruit staff locally.
Due to a severe shortage of nurses in the UK and aggressive recruitment by NHS Hospitals, the private sector is suffering the worst staffing crisis since the early 2000's, the the RCN nurses union estimate that there are 20,000 nursing job vacancies in England and Wales.

Due to a severe shortage of nurses in the UK and aggressive

The EU market for nurses has been heavily depleted
by numerous recruitment drives over the last three years, and employers
are increasingly turning to non-EU nurses to fill the UK job vacancies.
In order to work in the UK as a nurse trained outside the
EU, you should first register with the NMC on their website. You will need
to take an online test and pass an IELTS exam at level 7.00 across all bands.
The language test is the biggest stumbling block for overseas nurses, according
to a soon to be published new study.
NMC fees for the 4 stage application process:
Application for nursing/midwifery £140
Part 1 test of competence (CBT) £130
Part 2 test of competence (OSCE) £992
Admission onto our register £153
Total £1415
Part 1 test of competence (CBT) £130
Part 2 test of competence (OSCE) £992

Total £1415
For full details, check the NMC website http://www.nmc.org.uk/ and see if
you will qualify for UK registration.
Despite rising immigration in the UK and government plans to
restrict skilled migrants to 30,000 per year, Tier 2 working visas or work
permits are available for shortage occupation category non-EU nurses right now
with excellent salary packages up to £30,000 per year.
Employers need to register with the Home Office as Tier 2 Sponsors in order to employ non-EU nurses. We can assist employers with the Tier 2 sponsorship registration process.
