SMART ERECRUITING OF FOREIGN NURSES USING
INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES
One of the biggest challenges for care is, without a doubt, the increasing shortage
of skilled nursing professionals. For many years, nursing staff have been recruited
from various countries. However, these projects are not always successful. The
greatest hurdles are certainly the language skills, which for legal reasons have to
be at least a language level B2. In addition, the different culture, a different nursing
organization and an uncertainty in the nursing documentation increase the
likelihood of project to fail. The University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf
(UKE), the NursIT Institute and Start Medicare are taking new innovative approach.
With the help of the smart nursing expert software CareIT Pro, an automatic
analysis of the nursing documentation, diagnoses and interventions takes place in
the UKE. The system creates a nursing requirement catalog, which is transferred
and integrated into the training in the nursing universities in the home country.
Nursing language training is conducted up to level B2 in home country and
supported by eLearning. The nurses in education use the same nursing
documentation software and are trained to the exact needs and specialties of the
individual health care facilities. This way the expectations on both sides are
accurately managed, which simplifies the migration and integration process. In this
lecture, we will present the challenges, the technological possibilities and
successes from the first projects in the Philippines.
