Italy Needs Foreign Nurses
As of 2024, there will be about 65,000 open nursing positions in Italy, according to sources in the local media. In order to meet the need for workers in this field, the Italian government intends to admit 50,000 foreign nurses by 2025.
India is anticipated to offer a significant market that will assist in filling the labor need in Italy, and Italy is eager to welcome 10,000 Indian nurses. Other nationalities from neighboring Schengen countries like Poland and Romania, or from nations like Albania or Peru, may make up the majority of foreign nurses in Italy.
India Will Grow to Be a Significant Market for Italian Foreign Nurses
The Italian health minister emphasized that in order to cover the approximately 30,000 nursing job openings, Italy is prepared to import additional highly qualified foreign professionals from India. By 2025, 10,000 Indian nurses will be admitted to Italy.
Italy's relaxed regulations for foreign nurses
In an effort to draw in more foreign nurses, the Italian government is easing regulations. To recognize international educational credentials and talents of people seeking to work in Italy, the nation will establish Italian language centers in India.
In Italy, obtaining a four-year Bachelor of Science in Nursing or a three-and-a-half-year General Nursing and Midwifery certificate are the prerequisites for becoming a nurse.
