StrideNurses

Bridging the gap between Indian nurses and Dutch healthcare.

We bring qualified nurses from India into Dutch healthcare and stay with them the whole way: the language, the paperwork, the move and the first year of building a life here.

BIG-track started, Dutch at B2 — before setting foot in the Netherlands.
