It’s clear that New Zealand could benefit from adopting strategies similar to those employed by the NHS in the UK when it comes to recruiting international nurses. The NHS has a long history of effectively recruiting from countries like India, underpinned by well-established practices that ensure they hire the right professionals for the right locations. One key element of the NHS’s success is their proactive approach to recruitment. Rather than relying on random applications from abroad, often from individuals with little experience but enough money to apply, the NHS sends representatives directly to countries like India to handpick candidates through a rigorous interview process. This ensures they are selecting individuals who not only meet the professional requirements but are also well-suited to the specific needs of the NHS. Once selected, these nurses receive comprehensive support, including preparatory training for critical exams like the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE), and assistance with the necessary accreditation requirements. They are also provided with accommodation and initial provisions to help them settle into the UK. Moreover, the NHS is strategic in placing these nurses in areas where they are most needed, particularly in regions that face staffing shortages. This targeted approach ensures that even the hardest-to-staff locations are adequately covered. It’s surprising that we haven’t implemented a similar strategy, particularly when it comes to directing Competency Assessment Programme (CAP) nurses to regions like the West Coast, which struggle with recruitment. Instead of relying on random overseas applications, partnering with specialist recruitment agencies from New Zealand (like Geneva Staffing) to send staff directly to countries like India. This approach would allow them to handpick and support the right candidates from the outset, ensuring that recruitment objectives are met. Given the success of similar models internationally, this seems like a missed opportunity to ensure that healthcare staffing is distributed more equitably across New Zealand. By adopting a more structured and targeted approach to international nurse recruitment, similar to the NHS, we could better address staffing shortages and ensure more consistent healthcare provision across the country.
