We are committed to addressing the recruitment challenges which are being experienced widely across the UK and have taken action across a number of areas.
For the fifth consecutive year funding to support health professional education and training in Wales has increased, resulting in a significant increase in nurse training places. In June this year I announced the extension of the NHS Bursary Scheme and our Train Work Live campaign continues to focus on registered nurses, showcasing the diversity of NHS nursing careers available and the lifestyle choices available in Wales.
The table below provides the number of nurses (headcount) who have joined and left the NHS in Wales for each year from 2016-17 to 2018-19. The figures are as at March of each year. The figures relate to contracted headcount and do not include bank staff. They also do not include internal movement within NHS Wales. The Welsh Government does not hold this information by each health board and trust.
