The UAE is composed of seven emirates that continue to grow in terms of industry and economy. General practicing nurses are in demand in the Gulf territories, formerly the Trucial Coast. But more particularly, specialized nurses like those who are skilled in critical care, neonatal critical care, maternity, and operation theatres are very much in demand. Knowing that most nurses in and around the world fly to the US or Canada to work as nurses, the UAE also suffers from healthcare providers shortage, and because of this, the UAE raises the salary of nurses. The higher salaries are also packed with sophisticated hospital and medical facilities, hopefully making the nurses’ jobs a little easier compared to other countries that lack medical facilities.

Also the countries in the Gulf region have a lot of medical centers like tertiary referral centres, provincial secondary care hospitals, and rural outreach centers, these venues are truly best places to get trained and be more competitive in the nursing profession.

Given that the Gulf territories consist of many nations, it is unified by almost the same culture yet promising learning opportunities.

Because the Gulf is serious with providing quality care to its people, positions are offered in long term and permanent positions. The approximate salary grade of nurses in the UAE usually starts at a minimum of USD 1,500.
