MELAKA: The state government is ready to assist private healthcare facilities in getting foreign trained nurses, to help improve the quality of services in the private healthcare sector and enhance the health tourism industry in the state.
State Health, Human Resources and Unity Committee chairman Ngwe Hee Sem emphasised that the recruitment of these nurses must adhere to the conditions set by the Health Ministry, and they must possess specific recognised qualifications to ensure there were no negative effects on the state's healthcare sector.
"However, the state government will assist if necessary," he told reporters after officiating the state-level 2023 Wellness Month Celebration for Melaka which was also attended by state health director Datuk Dr Rusdi Abd Rahman here on Saturday . However, it was subject to several conditions, including passing the Malaysian Nursing Board Qualification Examination for Foreign Trained Nurses conducted by the Malaysian Nursing Board and that the number of foreign nurses in each private health facility cannot exceed 40% of the total number of nurses.
