Interesting we’d rather import NHS staff than train them.
Even the likes of Germany have to import medical staff from around the world. Even high spending Sweden has its problems.

Sweden is struggling to recruit enough nurses for the summer period, with hospital staff numbers set to be strained.

Sweden's stretched healthcare has been a high-profile subject in recent years following stories about the scarcity of beds at hospitals and nurses raising concern about an increasingly tough workload.
...
Sweden's hospital beds shortage has been among the worst in Europe in recent years, according to official statistics. In 2015 it had 2.4 available beds per 1,000 people, according to the OECD, fewer than Ireland and the UK at 2.6 per 1,000.
But despite that and long waiting times, Sweden's overall standard of healthcare is generally considered high. It made the top-five best nations in the Healthcare Access and Quality Index (HAQ), which was published in the UK journal The Lancet in 2017 and studied the quality of healthcare in 195 countries by measuring mortality rates from causes that should not be fatal in the presence of effective medical care.
