NHS will recruit doctors from Australia as it 'pulls out all the stops' to try and hire more GPs The NHS will offer Australian doctors a 'relocation package' of up to £18,500 to move to the UK as it tries to hire more GPs to battle a staffing crisis.
The health service will target GPs who previously left the UK for Australia and are looking to return home, as well as Australian GPs who want to live in the UK.
NHS England's director of care says the UK is 'pulling out all the stops' as it tries to bring in doctors from a country where training and quality are as high as at home.
Figures last week revealed as many as 2.5 million patients are at risk of losing their surgeries in the next five years because so many doctors are close to retiring. The Daily Mail
