International Nurses recruitment information.

The request was successful.

Dear Stockport NHS Foundation Trust,

Dear

Could I please request if the trust used agencies to recruit international nurses
during 2019 or earlier if not last year? and which agencies were used and which
framework.
If the trust did use agencies, how many nurses were recruited and how much was
spent recruiting overseas nurses via both framework and off framework agencies?
Can I also have the total cost to recruit one international nurse and what upfront
costs the trust incurred, with the cost broken down?
Does the trust also conduct their own OCSE training? If not who do you use?
Do you plan to recruit nurses internationally

Yours faithfully,

Matt James
