The NHS recently celebrated its 70th anniversary, and an indispensable part of this workforce is made up of overseas nurses.
It’s a huge wealth of expertise upon which we can rely, and in this episode of King’s Conversations, Dr Dilla Davis joins us to share the oft-overlooked impact of overseas nurses, and how nursing & midwifery policies must change if we’re to empower them.
Dr Dilla Davis worked with Dr Agimol Pradeep BEM, liver transplant coordinator at King’s College Hospital on a groundbreaking campaign to help internationally trained nurses complete their UK nursing registration without language tests. Their work has been recognised by the Health Services Journal who awarded them Workforce Initiative of the Year and highly commended them in the NHS Race Equality Award Category.
This episode of King’s Conversations covers:
Recognition of overseas nurses in the UK
Challenging barriers to entry
Myths surrounding the UK’s approach to nurses from international territories
Next steps for utilising and harnessing the expertise of this nursing workforce
