We have become very experienced, in the #NHS, private #healthcare and #socialcare, at #international #recruitment. The stats below are pretty clear (no, I didn't know that about HALF of new nurses and midwives who joined the register last year were educated abroad). However, we are told by clients and partners in health and social care, that a lot more could and should be done to help new international recruits to settle and thrive. In our experience, there are 5 major factors that can transform #wellbeing, #engagement and #rentention of internationally recruited colleagues, in the first 6-12 months since arrival: 1) wellbeing and pastoral support 2) peer support 3) cultural integration 4) line manager support (not as straightforward as it might sound) 5) personal and professional development #NewHorizons, our newly launched Talent for Care program for international health and social care frontline teams, addresses all 5 factors - we are told, in a highly interactive and innovative way. We would be delighted to hear from anyone interested in finding out more or just sharing their experience: https://lnkd.in/e8ihJU78
