I plan to emigrate to the costa blanca in January and would like to become an independent nurse to care for people in home care. Does anyone have any advice about it, or is there a need to provide quality home care in the region? I speak several lenguages, Dutch, English, German, Spanish

There is a need, I think, but you would need to get your qualifications recognised by Spanish system. To work independently, you will need to register as autonomo, self employed, which will bring you into the Spanish tax and social security system. Your main problem is going to be the price point, services are not that well paid here.

I honestly don’t think you would have a problem Eva ....

There is a huge call for professional nurses especially with the languages you speak ...

Obviously a very talented lady whom would be perfect for the private sector

Quiron would be perfect call and get the appropriate forms ...

Their are many carers but no qualified nurses with your credentials 

Hope this helps and this is a beautiful place to live welcome

Private hospital - Quiron Hospital in Torrevieja.   You can look up their website and can contact them on their website for jobs.   Here is a link to their website:
