Yes there is still a shortage even w. the economy set to shrink by at least 4% this year. Don't expect to escape the recession/depression though, Blair and co followed the Bush plan all the way down the drain.. Just contact any private employment agency that subs to the NHS, they will sort out the paper work for you and pay way over the going rates because people are essentially not smoking anymore and consequently living much too long!

As you know the US health system gets money from paying people, whereas the UK health service is free (NHS). Because of this, and unreasonable government funding, the NHS is in quite bad shape. The pay is low and the hours long, and the hospitals are in bad shape. I don't know why you would want to work as a Nurse in the UK, but if you do, there should be plenty chance to get a job. If you decide to speciallise in later years then you are in for good money. It depends on the field however.
