8. I don't think too many of the foreign nurses will stay.

If they get a husband, they'll quit work, cultural thing...

Plus, the local nurses resent them immensely! They have to "watch over them" as it takes a long time to acclimate to our culture, proceedures, communicate with physicans..etc......more work fo the overworked charge nurse. They will be run out essentially.

Also, the hospitals would not have to recruit overseas if they would pay the current nurses more money. Another resentment issue! Pay out a fortune to import outher nurses and not pay us what we are worth while they expect us to monitor and train them.
