About this sector

Healthcare and nursing is the largest sponsored category in the UK. NHS trusts, private hospitals, GP practices, and specialist clinics sponsor registered nurses, doctors, allied health professionals, and support workers through the Health and Care Worker visa — which carries lower application fees and faster processing than the standard Skilled Worker visa.
