This paper describes the practice of international recruitment of Indian nurses in the model of a "business process outsourcing" of comprehensive training-cum-recruitment-cum-placement for popular destinations like the United Kingdom and United States through an agency system that has acquired growing intensity in India.
Despite the extremely low nurse to population ratio in India, hospital managers in India are not concerned about the growing exodus of nurses to other countries. In fact, they are actively joining forces with profitable commercial ventures that operate as both training and recruiting agencies. Most of this activity is concentrated in Delhi, Bangalore, and Kochi.
Gaps in data on nursing education, employment, and migration, as well as nonstandardization of definitions of "registered nurse," impair the analysis of international migration of nurses from India, making it difficult to assess the impact of migration on vacancy rates. One thing is clear, however, the chain of commercial interests that facilitate nurse migration is increasingly well organized and profitable, making the future growth of this business a certainty.
本文描述了印度护士通过在印度日益盛行的代理机构系统，以“业务流程外包”模式进行综合培训、招聘和安置，向英国和美国等热门目的地进行国际招聘的情况。
尽管印度护士与人口的比例极低，但印度的医院管理人员并不担心护士大量外流到其他国家。事实上，他们正积极与作为培训和招聘机构的盈利性商业企业联手。这类活动大多集中在德里、班加罗尔和科钦。
护理教育、就业和移民数据方面的差距，以及“注册护士”定义的不标准化，妨碍了对印度护士国际移民情况的分析，难以评估移民对空缺率的影响。然而，有一点很清楚，促进护士移民的商业利益链组织日益完善且利润丰厚，这一业务未来的增长是必然的。
