Irish Nurse 'Brain Drain' to Britain as HSE stalls
Daily Mail
February 12, 2010
By Yvonne Tarleton
They are urgently needed in overstretched hospitals across the country.
But Irish nursing graduates – despite the enormous expense of educating them – are being left unemployed because of the HSE’s ban on recruitment.
And the British health service is only too happy to welcome them as Ireland faces a nursing brain drain.
Despite the recession in Britain, hospitals in the southeast of England are snapping up hundreds of Irish graduates to fill their own shortages. The British NHS – which says it looks to Ireland for recruits because our nurses are trained to such a high standard – is about to hold a recruitment fair in Dublin for vacancies at hospitals in London next month. Meanwhile, a HSE embargo on hiring means that those still working in the Irish health service are under severe strain as those who leave are not being replaced.
Fine Gael health spokesman Dr James Reilly said: ’We’re screaming for nurses here. We have some of the brightest nurses in the world and other countries are delighted to take them on.
‘They are the most energetic, bright people we have to offer. We have invested heavily in them, and they are being let go in a baffling move by the HSE. The same thing applies to doctors, because there aren’t enough training spaces.
‘A recent survey has found that one in two doctors who move abroad will stay abroad, and I’m sure it is the same for nurses.
‘Physios are having the same difficulty.
They get 550 points in their Leaving Cert, the State spends thousands educating them, and they are left with the option to either move abroad or work in McDonald’s – all while hospitals are crying out for them,’ he said.
This news comes just weeks after union bosses estimated that 90 per cent of this year’s graduates will emigrate due to lack of jobs.
A spokesman for the NHS in London explained their reason for coming to Ireland: ‘It would be mainly because the nurses are trained to a high standard.
’Ireland is an obvious place to recruit from because they have the same language and excellent nurses.’ Last December, 30 graduates were recruited from Ireland to the Royal Berkshire Hospital in Reading, 60km west of London. The hospital plans to take on another 15 Irish graduates this year.
It is understood that more than 5,000 Irish nurses have been forced to apply to work in hospitals abroad following the HSE’s ban on recruitment.
