Chinesische Pflegekräfte in Deutschland : Literaturanalyse und Expertenbefragungen zu Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der Beschäftigung von chinesischen Pflegefachkräften in Deutschland

Abstract

The shortage of nurses is not only a problem in Germany, but also in many other western and eastern countries in and outside of Europe. One approach to coping with the already existing skills shortage in nursing, which is expected to aggrevate in the future, is to recruit care personnel from other countries, from so-called third countries, including China. So far, there have been many individual references to the potential of and possible issues with recruiting skilled nurses from China, but there is no systematic overview of the opportunities of employing Chinese nursing staff in Germany. In order to be able to better assess the benefits of recruiting nursing staff from China, the author systematically compiled an empirical record of the associated risks and potentials in her paper on the basis of guided expert interviews.
