HSE steps up efforts to bring home Irish nurses working abroad


Thousands of Irish healthcare professionals are believed to be working in health systems in countries such as the UK, the US, Canada and Australia for better pay and conditions and for travel opportunities.
The HSE is running its New Year New Career recruitment awareness campaign until January 31.
A spokesperson said: "Please consider pursuing a career with the HSE in 2019."
Candidates are asked to add their details to the HSE Talentpool alert system. This will allow the HSE to notify you, by email, of recruitment campaigns when advertised on the HSE website, relevant to a grade or profession, as they arise across the HSE.
The HSE is the largest employer in the state, with over 100,000 employees.
More than 67,000 are direct employees, the remainder are employed by agencies funded by the HSE.
The HSE said it "offers a wide range of challenging career opportunities that enable its staff to make an important contribution to the health services, to public service and to the lives of everyone living in Ireland."
Candidates are asked to email [email protected] with their name, profession(s) of interest, mobile number (international format) and personal email address. Please do not forward CVs.
The Talent Pool team will record the details and may send a text alert and email when the HSE’s National Recruitment Service next run a recruitment campaign that may be of interest to the candidate.
