Abstract

The article presents research which focused on the need for understanding the reason behind the international migration of nurses. It says that the move of some nurses to migrate and work in foreign regions can be due to ineffective policies in industrialized countries like the U.S. According to the author, this trend depicts the failure of international and national regulations to address the perpetual worldwide nursing shortage.
