About Us

Why are we here?

Sweden is facing a critical nursing shortage, with many healthcare facilities, particularly in remote areas, struggling to meet their staffing needs. Although there are over 210,000 licensed nurses in the country, a large portion are not actively working, with many over the age of 65. In reality, only about 128,000 nurses are currently employed. Reports suggest that up to 45,000 more nurses will be needed to meet rising healthcare demands, a challenge likely to worsen with demographic changes.

VOOB Healthcare’s Mission

VOOB Healthcare utilizes the strong ties between India and Sweden within our organization to address Sweden’s nursing shortage by recruiting and training highly qualified Indian healthcare personnel. We work closely with top universities and hospitals in India to ensure a reliable flow of well-trained professionals who are fully prepared to work in Swedish healthcare institutions.

VOOB Academy

VOOB Healthcare has made significant investments in developing VOOB Academy, offering language training led by certified Swedish teachers and cultural education tailored specifically for nurses relocating to Sweden. Additionally, our mentorship program pairs Indian nurses with experienced Swedish healthcare professionals, ensuring they receive continuous support throughout their transition.

Looking ahead, we encourage nurses to stay actively engaged with VOOB Academy, even after completing their training, to help streamline and improve the license transition process for future cohorts. By sharing their experiences and insights, they contribute to making the path for future nurses smoother and more efficient.
Cost-Efficiency

VOOB provides a cost-effective, sustainable solution by offering fully trained nurses who transition into full-time, permanent staff. This contrasts with the high costs and lower continuity often associated with temporary consultancy nurses, delivering both financial savings and a consistently higher standard of care.
Seamless Social Integration

In addition to professional training, we provide comprehensive relocation support, covering everything from work visa applications and legal matters to travel, housing, and social integration. This holistic approach ensures that nurses transitioning to Sweden are well-prepared not only for their professional roles but also for seamlessly settling into Swedish society.
Quality and Continuity in Care

Our nurses bring extensive theoretical knowledge and practical experience, combined with a strong commitment to long-term employment in Sweden. This ensures greater continuity of care and improved patient outcomes, as nurses who are familiar with their workplace, colleagues, and patients are more effective than temporary hires. Additionally, this reduces the administrative burden on healthcare institutions, minimizing the need for repeated onboarding and frequent staff transitions.
Ongoing Support and Administrative Efficiency

VOOB provides complimentary support to both healthcare institutions and nurses, ensuring a seamless integration process. This proactive approach helps reduce the administrative burden associated with staffing, allowing institutions to focus on improving patient care and overall operational efficiency.
