what kind of foreign staff

Hello,

I wonder if you could help me with this:

I know that a certain hospital employs some people from abroad but I don't know if these are doctors, nurses, drivers etc. Now, I need a simple question to ask the manager of that hospital to find out. Would it be OK to ask:

"What kind of foreign employees work in your hospital?" or "What foreign employees work in your hospital?" or something completely different?

Looking forward to any suggestions.

" Usually nice ones. " Well, there's Fred in the office, and the three Pakistani women in the Emergency Dept. To get the kind of answer you want, you need to ask something about their jobs.
