The Corona pandemic has further increased the shortage of specialists in the field of intensive care. According to current estimates, there is a deficit of 35-40,000 medical professionals in the German job market. The situation in the Philippines is quite different: In Manila for example, each year more young adults graduate from state-certified nursing programs than there is a demand in Germany. The ultimate goal of many nurses: a fulfilled professional life in Europe.

As a German-Philippine recruiting network with offices in Mannheim, Düsseldorf and Duisburg, TRANSCURA is committed to actively responding to the shortage of skilled workers in the German nursing sector. Our experienced team of healthcare experts, teachers, sales and coaching staff supports the entire process: from precise needs analysis and targeted recruitment to successful long-term placement of vacant positions.

The severe shortage of skilled personnel is increasingly attracting the attention of dubious recruitment agencies. They lure Filipino nursing staff to Germany with false promises. Professionals are pressured into signing questionable contracts that do not comply with German labor law. As an independent counseling agency, Transcura actively supports these people and helps to make the dream of a successful professional life a reality after all.

TRANSCURA supports with advice and action during the transition to a new employer. However, our work does not end with the placement of a nursing professional. We also provide support in finding and furnishing accommodation, assist in filling out forms and help with settling into the new living and working environment. As a substitute family, Transcura provides emotional and moral support and offers comfort in cases of severe homesickness. In addition, we finance an annual vacation trip to the Philippines for each nurse. This creates personal relationships that form the basis of a successful and long-lasting collaboration. This relationship of trust also benefits to our partner companies in the nursing sector, who can fully rely on a complete compliance with the employment contracts.
