The chart illustrates the average monthly salaries for qualified healthcare professionals, such as nurses and doctors, in four different countries. Two of them are the source countries (A and B); the other two are the destination countries (C and D).
It is evident that doctors and nurses have significantly higher earnings in destination countries compared to the source countries. In every country, doctors have higher salaries than nurses. Country A provides the lowest wage among the four countries, $35 for nurses and $64 for doctors. However, Country B has more attractive wages, $350 for nurses and twice the payment for doctors, averaging $700.
The destination countries, which receive healthcare professionals from abroad, have much higher salaries for both nurses and doctors. Country C provides 2900 dollars for nurses, which is approximately 8 times higher than the salary from Country B, and 5500 dollars for the doctors. Furthermore, Country D has the highest wages among these four countries. With an average monthly salary of 3420 dollars for nurses and 10200 dollars for doctors.
In conclusion, this large gap between destination countries and source countries explains why health care professionals from source countries move to the destination countries.
