  5. Shortfall of nurses a major cause for concern • One major problem is the shortfall of qualified medical personnel. According to Deloitte’s 2015 Global Healthcare Outlook, the workforce, notably the nurses and physicians, was dominated by expatriates. • Lack of interest for this profession, poor pay and lack of clarity about the role are some of the challenges for nursing. • People need to understand what nurses do and for that, people should be educated about nursing as a skill, the demand it has globally and the opportunities that come along with it. • The UAE significantly depends on foreign nationals to meet its healthcare requirements.
