Overseas mobility of U.K. based nurses.

This paper examines trends in international mobility of U.K. nurses. Inflow and outflow of qualified nurses from the U.K. are assessed, and source and destination countries identified. The reasons for mobility are also examined. The paper reveals that mobility of nurses to and from the U.K. has declined in the 1990s, after having increased markedly in the late 1980s. Mobility to and from North America and Australasia has reduced significantly, as a result of organisational change and reduced career opportunities, whilst inflow and outflow to and from other European countries has remained more static, but at a lower level.

The international mobility of nurses: a United Kingdom perspective.

This paper examines available information on the flows of qualified nurses to and from the United Kingdom, and reports on the results of a questionnaire survey of U.K.-based nurses who had worked abroad. The data examined reveals an upward trend in both "inflow" and "outflow" of nurses in the period 1984-91, with indications of a net outflow. The survey results indicated that Australia was the most common destination; most nurses working abroad had moved to the English-speaking countries of North America and Australasia. Barriers and incentives to international mobility of nurses are discussed, and likely future trends in mobility are examined.
