Indian nursing staff are currently being recruited by Silkkitie, a company owned by Sotjätti Attendo. The local partner believes that there is great potential in this venture and sees it as a business opportunity. One of the nurses who will be moving to Finland next summer is Vikas, a 25-year-old nurse from Delhi. Despite being nervous, Vikas is excited about the opportunity to live in the happiest country in the world and has already started learning some Finnish words.
The partnership between Silk Road and Indian Walsons Healthcare has paved the way for bringing Indian nurses to Finland. With plans to increase the number of nurses at a rapid pace, this partnership is seen as a growth opportunity for both companies. Richa Arora, the director of Walsons Healthcare, believes that there is a demand for nurses from India in Finland and sees this as a business opportunity. However, there are challenges in the recruitment process including language tests and educational requirements that need to be overcome.
Silkkitie and Walsons Healthcare are committed to responsible recruitment practices and ensuring that the nurses are well-prepared for their new roles in Finland. They use advanced technology and verification processes to confirm the authenticity of credentials and provide transparent information to job seekers about their employment terms and benefits. The companies are also looking to recruit whole families to work in Finland with the goal of establishing roots in the country and addressing the shortage of personnel in the Finnish social security sector. With a turnover of 3.8 million euros in 2022 and plans for further expansion, Silkkitie is poised to make a significant impact on the healthcare sector in Finland.
