Aim:This study was conducted to evaluation of the status related to the professional migration and working conditions of nurses who migrated professionally from Turkey. Background: In recent years, the number of nurses going to work abroad has increased due to the increasing need for nurses in countries, particularly due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and economic conditions and this trend is increasing among young nurses as well. Method: The research was carried out on 130 nurses and between June and August 2022. Result: The results showed that young, educated, experienced, female nurses who chose their profession willingly and worked in the private sector, migrated to Germany especially during the pandemic to have better economic, working and living conditions. They migrated via agencies and preferred Germany. The nurses mostly worked in inpatient units for less than two years, in accordance with their career plans and with shorter weekly working hours in the countries they migrated to. However, they faced issues related to allowance, language and orientation during and after migration. They were contented after professional migration and they planned to continue working in the country they migrated to for some time. They did not want to migrate to another country from their current location. Keywords: Migration, Nurse, Nursing, Professional Migration .
