Top 4 Reasons to Act on International Hiring Now

The healthcare industry is still grappling with staffing shortages, and organizations continue to search for sustainable solutions to secure a skilled, long-term workforce.

One solution that’s gaining traction is international direct hiring (IDH)—a strategy that not only helps fill urgent gaps but also supports long-term workforce stability.

But how will IDH impact your organization’s workforce strategy now and in the future?

Here are four key reasons to consider international direct hiring:

1. Increase Retention & Tenure International nurses often bring decades of experience and unique perspectives, helping improve staff stability and reduce turnover.
2. Fill Specialty Roles Faster Access to a global pool of qualified nurses means filling hard-to-recruit specialty roles quickly—without inflating wage costs.
3. Reduce Dependence on Contract Labor Transitioning from temporary staffing to building a loyal, long-term workforce reduces turnover and pay disparities, creating a more stable and engaged team.
4. Enhance Your Organization’s Reputation By prioritizing diversity through international hiring, hospitals can become more attractive, inclusive, and appealing places to work.
