The impact on Asian health care systems of nursing migration.
Nurses are precious resource in every corner of the world and hospitals are facing serious challenges in providing high quality care with current nursing shortages. While the shortage of nurses is a worldwide issue, impacting currently more on under developed countries, little literature is available on this aspect of the issue. Lots of job opportunities are available for nurses in western countries, advertised on a daily basis, that attract nurses and result in major nursing migration from Asian countries to the western world.
