Manx Care says international recruitment drive has been a success
Recruiting new nurses from overseas will help Manx Care reduce its dependency on high cost agency workers.
That's from the healthcare board's director of nursing, after an international recruitment drive helped cut the number of vacancies within the Island's health service.
The new recruits are starting to arrive on Island, and will continue to do so in the coming months.
Paul Moore says it will improve care for patients, as well as saving money:
