HASCA/Health and Social Care Associates described the state of affairs concerning migration of health and care professionals to and from the Netherlands in 2009.
Its report is the Dutch contribution to the so-called macro stage of the MOHPROF-project, which is funded by the European 7th Framework Programme for Research and Development (www.mohprof.eu). The project analyses migration patterns – with a focus on the EU – from and to multiple continents. The Dutch contribution could be completed thanks to an additional contract with the Dutch Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport. The report analyses general, demographic and economic developments as well as developments in the Dutch health care system as a framework for migratory processes. The report describes push-, pull-, stick and stay-factors. HASCA agreed to have the report made available on the Wemos website.
