I watched the Tonight programme a few days ago about the effect of Brexit. Maybe the OP watched the same programme as it was stated that Brexit had caused a huge shortage of NHS nurses and recruitment is currently from countries like the Philippines.
I have no opinion as to the accuracy of the claims in the programme

I got the impression the ones who left did so because they were underpaid, underappreciated and in terrible working conditions. They could improve all these by doing the same jobs in different countries.
I'm sure Brexit has stopped other nurses from overseas coming to the UK, but I doubt it's been a direct reason for them leaving.

hi goolee
this has been really badly reported by the media - I think with a view to inflame. Cohorts of immigrant workers are not going to be chained to radiators whilst their old colonial master advance on them with 10-pointed pitch forks each with a 1 ml syringe on the tine
but it reads like it
those inn patient care have to be vaccinated
if no- then desk duties or potato peeling
when the desks are full, or the potatoes peeled
it will be lawful to fire them as excess to reqts
no chains no radiators no pitch forks
buut listening to the beeb it seems like it
Current advice is on Hep B - you cant get a NHS job now unless you are, and having read it minutely, it requires very little tweaking

We were 'importing' Nurses from countries all over before Brexit and as the official figures show not all went back.
Personally I think this is very wrong. Taking medical staff from countries that can barely afford to train them in the first place is totally unacceptable. We need a proper training program, and in the case of Nurses NO degree.

of course importing is much faster,,,training takes time. I totally agree that poaching trained staff from other countries is not right....better to offer internships if staff need to travel to learn certain specialities. When I was at work, I refused to contribute funding to a "poaching exercise" being planned by the local AHA (when there were AHA's) and I ws called the then equivalent of "woke"
