Demand for health staff at all-time high

With elective procedures returning post-pandemic, there's a strong need for doctors with surgical and orthopaedic experience in particular

During the course of the pandemic, the demand generally centred on Covid-related specialities, such as medicine or anaesthetics/ICU. That demand has now expanded to cover a very wide range of disciplines.

The level of demand for healthcare workers across the sector is one of the biggest challenges facing Ireland’s health system at the moment, according to recruitment firms in the sector.

With countries across the globe still coming to terms with the Covid-19 pandemic and its consequences, the demand for qualified healthcare professionals has increased exponentially.
