Is there a high demand for registered nurses in Jamaica?

Big up to you too girls who are defending your country as well as mine Jamaica.I rate you girls for that cause some of these people like to act like they and there country is all that and diss up other people country but we Jamaicans not taking that.

Yes there is. We are always recruting foreign nurses to work here and they are paid well.

Yes there is because most of the local nurses are going abroad to work. The wages that they get in Jamaica really sucks.

Nurses are in great demand in Jamaica. One reason is because they are not paid well and work long hours. I was researching the country for a trip there this past July and nurses were contemplating a general labor strike then. Wages were a big issue and Jamaica is not a country where the poor live well. Many live in shacks and the poverty there is dire. It is pretty much a third world country. If these things are acceptable to you then Jamaica does need the services of good nurses.

I have a very big problem with aMERICANS calling my country poverty-stricken and whatever. FIRST OF ALL AMERICANS SHOULD AT FIRST LOOK AT THEIR COUNTRY WHICH IS POVERTY STRICKEN AND BADLY AT THAT. IF EVERYONE IN THIS COUNTRY WAS RICH THEN americans could SAY THAT OTHER COUNTRIES ARE POOR. If you have a problem with jamaica then I say f u c k you.

Tell him Halle! If you want poverty stricken check out the Native Americans on their reserves. They live in SQUALOR!

jamaica?? what?? you'll make like 3 or 4 times as much if you're an RN in the US...
