Shortage of nurses and other medical staff after BREXIT and fewer regulations as compared to other EU states is expected to drive the market growth in the country. The UK has 3.93 hospital doctors per 100,000 patients as per the Health Foundation UK, which is the highest among all the nations in the UK.


Furthermore, according to the European Public Service Union, the UK is expected to witness a shortage of more than 100,000 healthcare professionals. This is likely to increase demand for staffing agencies in the near future. The nursing workforce in the UK is aging, one in every five healthcare professional on the register is 56 or older, and one in every 10 is over 60 years of age, resulting insubstantial shortage.


These staffing challenges extend far beyond nursing; there are concerns that the implementation of vaccine regulations in November 2021 would further shrink the workforce.
