To understand and describe the experiences and perceptions of migrant Spanish nurses working in the UK.
Online survey with open-ended questions.
A total of 371 participants were recruited from online groups related to Spanish nurses working in the UK.
Four themes emerged from their content analysis: "Motivations for emigration: running away from job insecurity and unemployment," "Professional recognition," "Seeking better life stability" and "Future neediness: between a rock and a hard place." In these results, professional recognition was highlighted as a reason to stay in the host country, although the uncertainty represented by Brexit is reversing the migration trend that began years ago. Policymakers should be aware of these experiences to promote strategies and programmes, which encourage inclusion in the host country and will help these nurses in their transition process.
了解和描述在英国工作的移民西班牙护士的经历和看法。
在线调查,开放式问题。
从与在英国工作的西班牙护士相关的在线群组中招募了 371 名参与者。
内容分析中出现了四个主题:“移民动机:逃离工作不稳定和失业”、“专业认可”、“寻求更好的生活稳定性”和“未来的需求:进退两难”。在这些结果中,专业认可被强调为留在东道国的一个原因,尽管英国脱欧带来的不确定性正在扭转多年前开始的移民趋势。政策制定者应该意识到这些经历,以促进鼓励融入东道国的战略和计划,并帮助这些护士在过渡过程中。
