  • Comment on: Nursing to become degree-only profession

    Paul Gray's comment 9-Sep-2008 6:06 pm

    None of the comments in favour of the profession becoming an (even more) elitist quasi academic outpost of sociological (going by the Jarvis quote) thought has convinced me in any way that patient care will improve by forcing everyone into having a degree.

    I started my nursing career as an enrolled nurse in the 80's, did a conversion course in the early 90's and now work as an OH nurse in industry. If this route wasn't available I wouldn't be where I am today. I meet lots of young people who would love to follow a career in nursing but are essentially barred because of the culture of 'academia' we are all exposed to. How / why does making everyone have degrees make us better nurses?
