Telangana nursing colleges may soon offer Japanese to meet overseas caregiver demand
HYDERABAD: In a bid to tap into the growing demand for skilled caregivers in Japan, chief minister A Revanth Reddy has recently proposed introducing Japanese as an optional subject in govt nursing colleges across Telangana. The move aims to equip students with language skills to work in Japan, where the need for nursing professionals is rapidly rising due to an ageing population and low birth rate. A recent study published in ScienceDirect estimates that by 2025, Japan will require 19.6 to 20.6 lakh nursing professionals, facing a shortfall of 3 to 13 lakh. The gap is mainly due to older caregivers retiring and fewer young people entering the profession. At a recent review meeting, the CM highlighted that Japan is already recruiting nurses from states like Rajasthan and Meghalaya and expressed confidence that Telangana can become a key contributor. "This is a great opportunity for our nurses," said PV Nanda Kumar Reddy, vice-chancellor of Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences, Warangal. "Japan offers better pay and quality of life. Compared to Gulf countries, where work conditions are often tough, Japan is far more favourable. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo " You Can Also Check: Hyderabad AQI | Weather in Hyderabad | Bank Holidays in Hyderabad | Public Holidays in Hyderabad Nanda Kumar Reddy emphasised the need to recruit qualified Japanese language trainers to roll out the programme. A senior official from the directorate of medical education (DME), Sultan Bazar, confirmed the plan is in the early stages and a formal proposal will be submitted soon. Since 2021, Japan has been hiring Indian nurses under the Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) programme through a bilateral MoU. Telangana Overseas Manpower Company (TOMCOM) has trained and placed 31 nurses in Japanese hospitals so far, with two more batches undergoing training at National Institute of Tourism and Hospitality Management, Gachibowli. "The training spans six to seven months and includes language, culture, and workplace preparation. Before departure, they must pass language proficiency and nursing competency test at the embassy," said Shabna Sheikh, manager at TOMCOM. Japan offers a five-year visa, extendable further. Students from auxiliary nurse midwife, paramedical and intermediate backgrounds are also eligible. "This initiative will also help nurses connect better with Japanese patients. Those placed earn well and many have cleared debts and even built homes," said Laxman Rudavath, joint secretary, Telangana Nurses Association. "It's about delivering care with empathy and cultural understanding."
