Team Hopes to hire up to 1,000 British nurses London a a recruiting team from the United states offering higher wages and better Hospital working conditions has arrived in London seeking to hire up to 1,000 British nurses to help fill a growing nursing shortage in the United Stales. At the three Day nursing jobs fair which officially opens thursday representatives of is hospitals in nine states will be interviewing British nurses for jobs that pay up to four times As much As their salaries in Britain. The fair will move on to Dublin from june 25-27. Richard Devilo american coordinator of the fair said he already was receiving requests for information monday. Rodney Bickerstaffe general Secretary of the National Union of Public employees one of Britain s major Hospital unions said it is a National disgrace that Britain s hard pressed nurses have to go into exile to earn a decent Standard of living. This can Only Worsen the current nurse staffing crisis and Lead to even longer queues in our hospitals and More Ward closures because of the nurse Short Devito said the lowest starting salary for a nurse in the United states is $22,000 and that a nurse in a manage ment position could earn $35,000 to $45,000. A spokeswoman for the Royal College of nursing an association representing 260,000 nurses said Many British nurses arc leaving the country or the profession because of poor wages and Lack of opportunities.

Devito said a 1985 study by the Amer ican Hospital association found a 6.8 percent shortfall in nurses and in 1986the shortage increased to 13.6 percent. My personal prognostication is that Well hit 19 percent in 1987," he said. The shortage was sparked by a 30 per cent decline in . Nursing school enrolments since 1984 and a growth in the number of acutely ill patients who re quire intensive nursing service Devito said.
