Comment on: Nurse language tests 'among urgent recruitment concerns'
Fully agree, for those not in the know - registered nurses are required to pass the Academic version which is what certain universities require prior to undertaking a degree course.
The other option which quite frankly is fair is the general version which quite frankly if you are going to work in a professional setting seems to be a reasonable requirement.
On a seperate note I believe that all training nurses should take a degree course is yet another mistake by academics in their ivory towers.
A nurse learns the trade in the ward.
