Across many countries in Africa, nurses are being approached by recruiters to work abroad in care homes. For some, it’s a path that has exposed them to abuse. Listen to African nurses share their experiences of working abroad 🎧
In March this year, the W-H-O identified 55 countries as facing the “most pressing health workforce challenges”.
Basically, nations where there are less than 49 doctors, nurses and midwives per 10,000 people – the global average. Forty-one of them are in Africa.
