| Summary: | Recruiting nurses from other countries is a long-standing practice. In recent years many countries in the developed world have more frequently recruited nurses from the developing world, causing an imbalance in the health services in often already impoverished countries.

A consortium of authors from countries that have experienced significant nurse poaching consider the ethical aspects behind this continuing practice. |
