The government recognises that it is unethical to poach nurses from
sub-Saharan Africa. But kind words alone won't cure this problem

It is good news that health ministers in England have accepted this
week that they should not rebuild the NHS by stripping developing
countries of their scarce supply of qualified nurses. What a shame
they have not had the courage to find a robust solution to the
problems of medical migration.
The figures speak for themselves. Over the past four years about
40,000 overseas nurses have registered to work in the UK, mostly from
the Philippines, South Africa, Australia and India. The government has
no clear information on how many came to work in the NHS, private
hospitals and the more shadowy world of independent care homes. But it
is clear that ministers could not have achieved their targets for
expanding the workforce without this influx of talent.
