Licensed Nurses for EU Healthcare Employers
Licensed nurses for EU healthcare systems.
Overview
Precisely matched to your operational brief.
Workforce Capital recruits licensed nurses from India, the Philippines and Nepal for hospitals, clinics and long-term care providers across the European Union. Healthcare is a regulated pipeline and we run it accordingly: licence verification, dossier preparation for the host country's recognition authority, structured language training to the level the regulator demands, and adaptation support after arrival. Lead times are longer than in other sectors, usually six to twelve months from selection to first shift, and we plan cohorts with the employer rather than presenting single files. Nurses pay no recruitment fee, and contracts follow the host country's healthcare collective agreement in full.
Care providers often combine a nursing cohort with specialised caregivers for daily living support, and with hospital housekeeping teams for ward hygiene standards.
