This initiative is not just about bridging the talent gap in Europe; it’s about harnessing India’s human capital to meet global demands. Through its expansive reach and expertise, Veranda aims to unlock international opportunities for Indian nurses while contributing to the sustainability of healthcare systems across Europe.
The Initiative: Empowering Indian Nurses for European Healthcare Systems
The global skilling initiative will offer a range of training and support services, including:
Tailored Training Programs: Courses designed to meet European healthcare standards, focusing on both clinical and non-clinical competencies.
Language Proficiency Courses: Preparing Indian nurses to achieve fluency in the languages required for effective patient care in their destination countries.
Cultural Orientation: Equipping nurses with the necessary understanding of European work environments and cultural norms, ensuring a smooth transition.
