There is currently a global shortage of nurses. Developing countries such as Malawiare among those hardest hit by this shortage. The demands on available nurses have increased and at the same time there is a lack of interest in becoming a nurse owing to the poor working conditions among those still employed in the service. It is questionable if developed nations should recruit nurses from countries such as Malawi, where severe human resource constraints are being experienced. We argue in this article that the current phenomenon of nurses leaving developing nations for western countries is complex. Human rights issues of individual autonomy and public interest are at stake.
目前全球护士短缺。马拉维等发展中国家是受这一短缺影响最严重的国家之一。对现有护士的需求增加了，与此同时，由于仍在该行业工作的人员工作条件差，人们对成为护士缺乏兴趣。发达国家是否应该从像马拉维这样正经历严重人力资源限制的国家招募护士，这是值得怀疑的。我们在本文中认为，目前护士从发展中国家流向西方国家的现象是复杂的。个人自主权和公共利益等人权问题受到影响。
