ABSTRACT
Nursing has come long ways since then and the changing circumstances have brought lots of changes in the profession. India has 1,597 Diploma Nursing Colleges, 833 Degree Nursing Colleges and 97 Colleges providing Post Graduation, which has the capacity to train 79,850 diploma nurses, 41,650 graduate nurses and 1,940 post-graduate nurses every year. A 2015 report on the nursing brain drain in India reveals that up to one-fifth of the nursing labour force may be lost to wealthier states due to migration. India is faced with the double challenge of producing more nurses for emigration and at the same time filling vacancies within India.
Key words: Outsourcing, Emerging trends, Healthcare, Health.
