3,383 nurses, midwives move to UK in one year –Report

The report also showed that so far, 10,639 nurses and midwives practice in the UK.

Earlier in May, the President, National Association of Nigeria Nurses and Midwives, Michael Nnachi, said over 75,000 nurses and midwives left the country in five years to seek greener pastures as a result of poor wages and lack of decent work environment.

“The shortage of nurses and midwives, especially in certain areas of specialisation and geographic region, the increased rates of attrition and a chronic shortage of nursing personnel in the country increased workloads on nurses without an equivalent compensation, exposing them to more health hazards and compromising the quality of healthcare delivery.

Others were the reversal of sacked members in some hospitals as well as appropriate funding of the residency training programme.
