Bogus overseas universities
|
|
Would you be happy for a nurse or doctor or any other professional, to care for you without the equivalent of the required UK degree? There is published evidence of the existance of bogus universities within overseas countries. For example, one in India was found to be a textile warehouse- the Indian Government is however, trying to maintain standards.Many overseas staff will tell you, certificates can be bought.It is also the same within EU countries such as Bulgaria, and staff from the EU, require no additional training to practice in UK (email from NMC).Further, the degree may not be the equivalent anyway. Logic; they have different equipment and regulations for a start. I still await replies from Number 10, the NMC and all.

The HCPC inform me-they do check universities themselves.
Australia does have a system to check overseas universities--- do we???
The NMC state it depends on the individual nurse what training and content they need. Who will assess them I wonder?? Hmmm-- do we need a degree at all?
